[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 7547946, member: 20323"] There's some context that might illuminate why I consider 50 miles in 20 hours possible in this case. My 6th-level party is mostly PCs native to this jungle, including: [list][*]human UA ranger (gloom stalker), with jungle favored terrain & Outlander background [*]grung druid (circle of the land), who is amphibious and can climb, and has a giant lizard mount/pack animal [*]lizardfolk rogue (swashbuckler) / warlock (UA raven queen), who can swim and climb & has archaeopteryx animal companion who serves as a lookout/recon [*]goblin paladin (oathbreaker), who has a tireless warhorse skeleton steed [*]human bard (lore), the only non-native[/list] So there's lots of jungle-orienteering skill among this party. Though they haven't traversed this specific 50-mile stretch, they have explored the surrounding area and are very familiar with the ecology/patterns of the river they might hug for ~15 miles. They've also been doing a lot of 10 mile travel days in the jungle already and were well-prepped for the journey. Thus, I'd compare them to professional through-hikers, like the Appalachian Trail records I mentioned earlier (Karel Sabbe averaged 53 miles per day with support, Joe McConaughy averaged 50 miles per day without support...and this was stopping to eat/sleep...for days on end). I get that the Appalachian Trail vs. tropical jungle are dramatically different terrains, but if any group would be jungle adapted it's this one. [/QUOTE]
