Kestrel & Holod
Kestrel
Hey Holod, there's a ridge up north that hasn't been mapped yet—keen to chart a stealthy route and avoid any hazards.
Holod
Sounds like a good exercise in preparation. Grab a fresh topo, mark the obvious cliffs, and set a clear fallback point. Keep noise low, stay on the ridge line, and make sure every teammate knows the plan. And if you hit a surprise rockslide, just remember: even the toughest terrain can be navigated with a solid map and a bit of humor.

Got it, I'll get the topo and plot the ridge line now, marking the cliffs and setting the fallback. I'll keep the noise to a whisper and make sure the map is tight enough to avoid any surprises. We'll move in silence, stick to the line, and if the rocks shift, we’ll have the backup in place. Ready to head out.
Holod
Sounds solid. Keep the plan tight, stay on the line, and trust the fallback. Good luck, and watch for those hidden cracks. Stay dry and stay steady.
