Don't forget your umbrella and rain boots to combat the extreme weather introduced in this expansion. Earn a lantern to protect your hand and experience even more fun activities. With this expansion, weather will affect how the game is played through Weather Events. All of the possible Weather Events are shown across the Weather Board. The game is played in rounds. The first round starts before the first player takes their turn, and ends when the gameplay gets back around to the first player (just before they take their second turn). The purpose of the Weather Event Tracker matching the color of the first player's Player Mover (camper) is so that all players know exactly when each round begins and ends. At the beginning of each round, players decide who will roll the Weather Die for the round (it doesn't matter who rules the dice each round), to see which Weather Event will take effect. To know which die to roll each round, you will look at the forecast. If the Forecast Token is sitting on a sunny space then you'll rule the white Weather Die. If it's sitting on a stormy space, you'll roll the black Weather Die. Since the Forecast Token starts on his sunny space, you'll roll the white Weather Die for the first round. After rolling the die, move the Weather Event Tracker to the Weather Event for that round. This way, all players will know what the Event is throughout the round. You can then put the Weather Die back in its space on the Weather Board.

  In Bear Valley, you must be the first to survive the treacherous wilderness and escape to the safety of the camp at the end of the valley. Players start as 2-6 campers along the Bear River and must navigate the wilderness, avoiding bears and trying to not get lost. The map of trails and challenges is built by the players as they explore the wilderness. These wilderness cards feature beautifully illustrated realistic art and have between three and six exit points along with a variety of features, both man-made and natural in origin. No two games will ever play the same. Gameplay is structured around a clever movement mechanism in which the first player moves one card, the second player moves up to two cards, the third player three, and so on. Each of the six player characters has both advantages and disadvantages that can be used across a variety of play options — short or long play, regular or advanced. Dive into caves, row canoes, cross bridges, climb mountains, and cut through treacherous underbrush as you stop at nothing — except bears — to be the first to reach base camp. Can you survive and escape Bear Valley?
