Finding some rope near undeployed climbing shortcuts is generally easy. But getting enough to make use of every single one instead of hauling one around for emergencies can be difficult—especially with bad RNG. ..
Finding all the available rope in Timberwolf Mountain and Ash Canyon is crucial in order to avoid potential danger. ..
Timberwolf Mountain
The Timberwolf Mountain Range contains four known mountaineering rope spawn locations.
The Mountaineer’s Hut is the first stop on your hike. It’s a small, cramped building with a few benches and a small fire. Inside, you’ll find the first of many caches.
The other three are found around the summit of the mountain, two of which are found in shallow caves nearby.
The last rope is a bit tricky to find.
Some of the crates in the plane’s tail section contain hidden items.
The one with the rope inside is near a cardboard box and first-aid kit.
Ash Canyon
The six known spawn locations for the rope in Ash Canyon are scattered throughout the canyon. Some of these locations require a long journey to reach, while others are located near the canyon’s edge. ..
The Homesteader’s Respite contains one mountaineering rope and three more can often be found in close proximity. ..
The rope on top of the coal bin behind the ice fishing hut and the one inside of Homesteader’s Respite can be easily accessed with a few simple steps.
High Meadow is a popular spot for birdwatching, and there are several spots near the edge of the property where you can see birds. However, one of the harder spots to find is near the intersection of High Meadow Road and Old Hwy. 9.
The first ascent of High Meadow is a long and arduous journey that begins with a climb up the rope bridge over High Meadow. After crossing the bridge, climbers will need to be lookout for an old campfire to ensure they are not being followed by the enemy.
After climbing the first rope up to High Meadow, the other requires a small detour. ..
Climbing the first rope on the way up to High Meadow will take you to a small path off to the right containing scrub brush. ..
A makeshift camp has been set up in the woods following the shooting. Some wood and rope are used to build a shelter, and some people are using the space to sleep.
The two most difficult spawn locations in this region are the last two. ..
The first is on a wooden bridge near the top of the map, and the second is buried in the snow of Wolf’s Jaw Overlook next to a Bearskin Coat. ..
The two ropes can be found on different sides of the bridge, near the beginning of the path from Wolf’s Jaw Overlook to the Mining Camp.
Why Is This Useful?
Mountaineering rope is a versatile tool that can be used to reach dangerous and difficult-to-access areas. It can also help reduce travel time, making it an essential piece of equipment for climbers.
The best examples of this can be found in The Ravine, Bleak Inlet, and Broken Railroad.
Accessing the machinery in Last Resort Cannery requires using a rope to get to the part of Bleak Inlet containing Echo One Radio Tower. ..
Deploying a second rope near the lookout just north of the radio tower cuts travel from the higher and lower sections of Bleak Inlet down to a single rope climb. This change in approach makes it easier to complete multi-region endeavors, such as climbing the radio tower.
In the Broken Railroad region, there is an area that can only be accessed via a rope climb that begins with no ropes deployed.
The small ravine at the bottom of the mountain can contain high-quality items, so it’s generally worth the hassle of getting a rope set up there.
In some regions, mountaineering rope can spawn only in specific places. But some places have potential locations for spawning mountaineering rope, but don’t have any way to deploy it.
There are regions with no potential rope spawns, but a spot to deploy some, so it’s definitely worthwhile to keep track of where you store any extras you come across.
