The road to the mountains is paved with bad weather and dry Garlic Knots

The group spends some of the party's money to purchase spider climb for Fyorn. He learns the spell and puts it into his spell book and is also given 2 scrolls of it as well.
They leave the great city and pass over the border into the uncharted lands, leaving behind civilization as they know it. The first 13 days are uneventful through the foot hills. As they approach the base of the mountain their ears already begin to pop. The group moves up further toward the mountain base, it becomes clear that the cart will not go much further. A potential ambush point is discovered, and they pull the cart off to the side to investigate. Vornyn can tell that something big is coming (low rumbling in the earth itself). Out from above them the group sees a stampede of the large snow creatures storming right towards them. (The creatures are called "Tlalusk" as later determined by Panarus).
 
They narrowly escape being trampled, and then all is quiet. They camp (day 36) and hide the cart and pack all of the supplies onto the horses. That night both Wetzel & Garoloph are severely affected by the colder weather and the altitude.  Extra cloaks and blankets are given to them to try and stave off the cold. Panarus is continuously complaining that he can't get a good note out of his instruments and morale is definitively low. By morning one horse has died from the cold and now Fyorn is feeling the cold bite and his lips turn purple. The snow begins to fall as they start the ascent into the Surnoth mountains. A trap is sprung on the path ahead ("All Clear" given by Garoloph). A huge icicle falls from above and instantly kills the front horse (opens up his head like something out of "The Thing"). Vornyn cuts open the horse and places his dying freind inside (Han solo style).
On Day 37, further up the path Vornyn tries to Listen for signs of movement ahead but something strange happens. The howling of the wind against the mountain seems to become deafening so he is forced to put his fingers in his ears. Garoloph tries as well but resists the urge to cover his ears. He was seen writhing in pain on the ground from sonic damage and bleeding ears. Another horse jumps the cliff scared at something or merely committing suicide. Stock of remaining supplies should be checked at out next campsite because we have lost most of what we brought.
on day 39 the group encounters a Tundra frost giant (as evil as they come).

They avoid the encounter and Vornyn gives the remaining three horses a pep talk on how we need each other to survive. Day 40.....
