In episode 7 of The Long Dark I spend a few very cold nights in a fishing hut on Pensive Pond. I nearly get lost in a blizzard trying to find firewood but at least there was fish available for food.

I found out that fishing is a pretty excellent way to get calories without spending too many. I manage to catch my first rabbit in a snare and cook him up good. After a few cold nights and near death I finally make it back to the cave that leads to the Mystery Lake Region.

From there it's one night in a cave before getting back into the other side of the Carter Hydro Dam. To get back in I had to walk along a vary scary ledge and almost fell to my death.

A description of The Long Dark from the developer Hinterland:

HOW FAR WILL YOU GO TO SURVIVE?

Imagine the lights go out, never to return. Bright aurora flare across the sky, and all humanity’s technological might is laid to waste, neutralized in a kind of quiet apocalypse. Everything that has shielded humanity from the disinterested power of Mother Nature is suddenly wrenched from us, dropping us a few links down the food chain. Food and water are scarce. The roads are no longer safe. And winter approaches… Welcome to The Long Dark —an immersive survival simulation set in the aftermath of a geomagnetic disaster. Experience a unique first-person survival simulation that will force you to think and push you to your limits with its thought-provoking gameplay and mature storytelling.
