Mountains are climbed, special gear is needed to succeed. Not for the weak, frail or dumb.

Movement
A rested human carrying less than his encumbrance limit has 1 movement point per hour.
Moving from one tile to another has the movement cost of the more difficult terrain.
It is possible to move diagonally.

Water supply
The Valley has no major bodies of water. There are springs in several locations and small ponds can be found dotting the landscape.

Food sources
Orchards - Apples, pears, peaches, plums, cherries
Gardens - Well assorted, think monestary

Livestock - Small critters, beasts of burden
Hunting
