A relaxing morning (Day 520) cooking in the airfield. I've found the control hut to be the best spot for it: the sheltered place between the two buildings shields you from the wind from two directions, and the opened doors mean that if the wind blows straight through from either direction, at least two fires will keep going.

@rbos That's my central base in HRV but I find that level of the map to be sooo hard to internalise for some reason. The charcoal map is no help, either. I'm really taking my time there rn so I can really get to know it.

Super easy to get turned around there, yeah. The breadcrumbs are a great idea. I liked Monolith Lake the most out of the areas that I briefly visited in HRV while doing Faithful Cartographer. Good food supply, pretty scenery, easy to navigate. And with the new fishing system, there may be some reasonably sheltered spots for a hole in the ice. But I've found those really hard to use in interloper. Fishing badly needs places where you can reliably have a fire for 24-48 hours straight.
