Mechanics (from transcript analysis)

- end-of-day lodge actions — after each day, players take actions from a lodge track; order and availability affect card/gear acquisition
- Gear upgrades — gear cards upgrade capabilities and modify scoring or costs
- lift tickets and lodge track — lift tickets let you take lifts without spending an action; the lodge track provides actions and gear options
- path-based scoring and fame — routes yield points; fame can count toward points or unlock actions later
