Doing so will increase the Ice Fishing Skill and give you an excellent source of food and lantern fuel. An alternative and risky but very fast way to descend is to carefully walk down the side of the mountain slope facing Crystal Lake.While exploring the island, you'll encounter specific locations where you can fish. Mountaineering Ropes are not necessary on the return trip to the mountaineer's hut, but make the trip easier and grant fast access to Eric's falls and another cargo container full of tin cans of food (normally, there are three ropes that always spawned: two at the summit or Tail section, and one in the mountaineer's hut). Because of the multiple required rope climbs, it may be advantageous to prepare for the trip by accumulating coffee and bringing a light source for spelunking. It is possible to reach the Summit on day one of a playthrough, depending on the spawn. Take shelter in caves and keep warm with a campfirefire while waiting for weather to clear. Rest before climbing at ledges mid-climb to recover fatigue, or by consuming coffee, GO! Energy Drink, or Emergency Stims (last resort).

Being encumbered slows movement and makes climbing impossible. There are two ledges to rest at along the way.
