Title: Weary Traveler Rests and Evaluates Their Next Move. Category: Survival For me the long dark has been about getting back to the tramping (aka, hiking) that I love to do. Especially as I can have the adventures from the safety of home. Having chronic pain really hinders what I can do, and The Long Dark really helps me get out of my head and do the things I miss. It definitely distracts from the real world. I'm incredibly grateful it exists. Thank you. For my cosplay I'm a survival character slowly finding their way in this new landscape. Having made a "moose-hide" satchel they hope to continue their journey further, and are contemplating their next adventure. The Southern Alps. While not as extreme in terms of wildlife compared to Great Bear, the Southern Alps present many weather challenges. With constant changes to the weather, only the experienced survivor can survive. However the reward may be worth it as valuable game roam these hills. Note: The "moose-hide" satchel lacks actual moose hide as there aren't (many?) moose in NZ. Also I found that with waxed thread and a good leather setup, it took me 2.5 hrs to craft this satchel. However a determined survivor with little leather knowledge and lack of a hammer and punch, would definitely take a considerable amount of time to complete. The moose-hide satchel can definitely hold 5kgs extra and I can't wait to endeavor to make one in the game! Also a quick fun fact! The Southern Alps are some of the fastest growing mountains in the world, however their height is often limited by the extreme weather causing erosion. These mountain were the training ground for Sir Edmond Hillary, the first person to climb Mt Everest in 1953.
