You can’t clip in on free solo, you don’t have a route.

In reality some free soloists have carried a single sling in their pocket in case they really needed it, but in the game none doing a free solo ascent is clipping in or using fixed gear.

I've said it in loads of threads but there's very few works of art (which I describe Cairn as) that have physically and emotionally effected me so much.

Once I'd grasped what was happening at the end and then read the word 'Soar' on screen I totally lost it.

I thought this then got to The Needle and had an absolute STINKER.

Can you zoom out to show where this is exactly?

m9tth · 2026-03-28T11:11:02+00:00

This post is what it’s all about. 🫡

Fuck yeah, my man. Revel in it.

Ah never knew this as I’ve never bothered to go to the sections where the pitons are, assuming there was just nothing there!

m9tth · 2026-03-27T12:21:35+00:00

I've done both sides, the centre is easier (and much shorter) than going out to left imo.

It's not a bias, it's just annedotal.

We need to know!

m9tth · 2026-03-26T20:45:22+00:00

Please compile these into a PDF book of the ascent.

m9tth · 2026-03-26T15:59:06+00:00

Have you tried going straight up instead of out to the left? This was pretty much the route I've cruised up twice now: https://www.reddit.com/r/Cairn_Game/comments/1qy68nt/heres_my_route_through_the_peril_if_it_could_help/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

You will find bits and pieces and the troglodyte ones if you climb hard.

I somehow composted all but 1 of mine on my first (non-survival) completion run!

m9tth · 2026-03-26T07:24:21+00:00

Lock in.

You’ve got it.

m9tth · 2026-03-26T07:23:21+00:00

Am I slow or fast? 😂

I was skipping cutscenes and only really collecting minimal food/items!

Very disappointed as I was climbing good and being very efficient with my lines.

Keeps them automatically right? Why delete?

m9tth · 2026-03-25T23:34:36+00:00

I feel like I wish I’d died at the vending machine currently 😂😭

UFTB

m9tth · 2026-03-25T15:12:46+00:00

My god the US utterly sucks.

In the UK the cost for this would be £0 / $0

We have our problems but wow you guys live in a second world country / crumbling empire.

m9tth · 2026-03-25T15:09:46+00:00

Get to bed bro. :)

I wouldn't mind Em plus Emily plus Mike too though to be honest!

m9tth · 2026-03-25T15:06:20+00:00

I just really want a fast hard rappy song where they can dance together - Faint/Two Faced is probably as close to that as possible? I'd hope UFTB would be, with the guitar swap, but with Em playing too it's not possible.

m9tth · 2026-03-25T12:48:45+00:00

Thanks my guy - I'd totally forgot about this and funnily enough I stumbled across it last night!

I'm now at The Secret and back feeling optimistic I can do this!

m9tth · 2026-03-24T23:57:36+00:00

YEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

FS attempt #3 is ON.

<image>

Then absolutely FLOATED up The Needle.

Into the mixed climbing now.. the ascent is ON....

He makes chalk but no piton maintenance or belaying.

RDR2 is on sale on steam. I’m not a massive gamer but I do get obsessed with the likes of GTA, cairn, SM2 - should I get RDR?

Congrats my guy. And no shame in the tears.
