Day 556:
I’m practicing building staircases up steep hills, like the one to the south, so that I know how to handle them when I get to the big mountain.
It’s important to build something that won’t just become a giant mud slip zone, or a knot of roots with ankle-breakers in between, or something with loose stones that will slip out of place and take me with it down the side of a mountain.
Plus, I have a ton of leftover stone, and my ability to give a duck about whether I’m spotted died a violent death when I realized that a few days ago I passed 550 days here, which is ridiculous.
SOMEBODY GET ME OFF THIS ROCK.
So yes, climbing small mountains in practice for big ones, putting stairs down, lighting torches at the top.
