Day 47:
Still working on covering up signs that I’m here. I’m thinking that trees might help. From space they don’t really show much structure underneath them, especially the giant black oaks that are growing around the shoreline.
Alternatively I could cover everything up with dirt, free my animals, and pray I survive to the mountain.
My second entrance is about a third of the way to the mountain, so my plan to dig toward the hills is working, for some value of “working” anyway.
Meanwhile, near that entrance I actually found some andesite on the surface. I’m thinking during the sunny days I may just mine it outright. I can fill the hole with the dirt and gravel I’ve taken out of the cave… which coincidentally will clean up the cave a bit. (I’ve taken to making big wood bins to dump everything into just to get it off the floor. Hard to do with a stone shovel, but slipping on muddy floors gets old.
