The jungle they land in is dense and alien, but they are confident in their skill and prowess, so after a brief consultation with the crew to set up a base camp, they set off into the shade of the towering canopy of trees, heading for the nearby cliffs. | Their cursory scans indicated that sentient life is probable, but they cannot pinpoint it, so they descend to explore on foot, landing near a mountain range.
