You have to cross one at the woods of west glade. I posed this question when the poaching thread came up. They have added a mini patrol hut with a sign that says “smile your on camera”jimmywilson69 wrote: ↑Jan 23rd, '24, 16:09 refresh my memory, its been a while, you don't cross a rope to go to COOPs, right? the rope is at COOPs I recall.

Pretty sure they entered from the incorrect location on Juggernaut, intending to reach the Madden Creek drainage which if done correctly allows you to return to Sunrise. They jumped in too early...ski wrote: ↑Jan 23rd, '24, 16:36He should have known better . .Stormchaser wrote: ↑Jan 23rd, '24, 16:11Was that Tucker?

I heard the kids jumped in ahead of him and by the time he caught up they were too far gone . . .Stormchaser wrote: ↑Jan 23rd, '24, 16:41Pretty sure they entered from the incorrect location on Juggernaut, intending to reach the Madden Creek drainage which if done correctly allows you to return to Sunrise.

Well, then he did not take them in …. although the suggestion to do Madden Creek was questionable
