>Ranger trails with one exception I didn't notice until it was too late ALREADY HAVE THIS TREATMENT. Also Rangers probably have the climbing/swimming to contest it directly, which if I can figure out how to do would be equally fine. ~Z

This was posted in relation to survival skill checks (or lack thereof) in the current shift moonbeam. Can you talk a little more about what this post means for Ranger trails/tracking/etc? Does this mean it might be possible to add swim/climb checks to tracking over obstacles?

I'm guessing it means the Lang - Ferry and vice versa trail does not check swimming/perception/whatever needed to go the "long way". Even though I'm pretty sure the long way is faster due to trails being exceedingly slow.

The "long way" takes about 1/3 the time as the "short cut", which is entirely typical of trails in general.
