Following the lay of the land, you try and move towards higher ground. Eventually you find a steep hill which is bare of trees at the peak. It should give you a decent overview of your surroundings.
The climb takes hours, mostly because you must stop frequently to catch your breath. Dozer sits sedately at the base of the hill, awaiting your return. Without the cover of the trees, the sun falls harshly on your bare back but you are able to see a great distance away. First, to the north, the forest recedes into a clear grassland. You can see some large animals grazing there, bison, or possibly aurochs. The forest sprawls out in every other direction and it is difficult to see beyond their thickets.
Having now oriented yourself somewhat, you begin the descent back to Dozer. In the summertime, the light lasts long into the evening, so you may continue hiking for a while yet. You could continue further through the forest, seeking out another high point in another place to acquire more information about the area. Alternatively, you could just head north, out of the forest and into the plain. Foraging is more likely to be successful in the forest, however, with its abundance of foilage.
