... but in what would appear to be a thick, lush forest. Around you as far as you can see are massive trees with canopies that blot out the sky. The hum of bugs fills the air. It's hot, or at least considerably warmer than it was on top of the mountain, but not oppressively humid, at least.
Looking to your left, you can see the forest begins to clear out.
Looking to your right, you can see that the forest appears as dark and thick as where you are now. It is also possible that you can choose a member of your party to climb a tree to check to see which way you should go. Or maybe you could check out your perimeter on foot?
Climb a tree.
Choose the left path.
Choose the right path.
Check out the immediate area on foot.

[ somebody still has bed-head from rolling out of the bed and getting into clothes as fast as she could ]
A forest?
[ obvs hiyo plz ]
A forest?
[ obvs hiyo plz ]
Yeah.
[ she can't see any clues from here, though. ]
...
I guess if we're collecting things, it might not matter, but... if we want to reach the top of the mountain... we need to figure out which way we should go.

I'd be okay with that. It's probably safer than one of us climbing the trees anyway.
[ what with her super bungee powers being gone right now... ]

I'm fine with that, too. I... don't really know how to climb a tree, anyway.
As you go along, the trees become less dense, giving way to smaller, thinner trees and much less underbrush. Sunshine filters in from overhead, revealing jewels of blue sky lighting the thin leaves. The ground beneath your feet is takes on gentle slopes but seems no less covered in leaves.
Eventually the ground becomes more loamy, but you hear the river and see the frogs darting between tree roots before you see it. Approaching it, you will find the water cool, crisp, and clean.
Cross the river.
Following the river North.
Follow the river South.

That's true. So... if we head north, we'll probably find the mountain, and if we go south, we'll find wherever the river lets out.
[ that bay from before maybe? ]
[ that bay from before maybe? ]
It could, but if it's going down a mountain, it's gonna be going down.
Yeah. That's what I think, too.
We could try going north. There's probably going to be a lot to find even as we go up.

You choose to follow the river north. As you follow along, the river grows wider, more powerful, and the sound of running water gains a booming depth that becomes clear when its source comes into view: a huge waterfall spills over a small cliff side and into a deep pool.
Take a closer look at the pool.
Go check out the waterfall.

I think we're all in agreement then.
[ so let's go north! ]
