I noticed after the fact. Thanks for bringing it up in such a nerdy way though. Gives me the warm and fuzzies.

I'm honestly indifferent to which way you go, but it looks like the best way may in fact be to push straight for the south. You can check out the Heart, if you like, but it seems absolutely worth it to head for the Shipwreck.

Oookay. Rafting across the Aldani Basin it is. The rafts only go about 1 to 2 miles per hour, but you don't get any further on foot than that and it's much harder work on foot (hacking through jungle). Also, in the Aldani Basin, it would be very wet on foot.
BUT, most of the time, it's not terribly hard work to sit aboard the raft, even if you take a turn poling, so it's not difficult to make a long day of it. If you want to set a fast pace, and try to get 20 (or possibly more with a check!) miles in a day, it's totally doable.
What do you think?

What kind of check? Con? Survival?

Sure. Str (Athletics) to pole faster, Wis (Survival) to follow the best "path", or Con to go dawn-to-dusk while others rest. (This is if you want to push the limits of a Fast Pace - otherwise you just follow the Fast Pace rules, which in this case would be that you have a 75% chance of making it 2 hexes (20 miles) in a day, and take -5 to Passive Perception against random encounter potential threats.

Eww, -5 doesn't sound fun. Could others pole and Harb stand watch? I believe he's the best Perception still?

I have to admit, I prefer doing overland travel as a mini skill-challenge, rather than the standard 5e "You can go slower and sneak, or faster and see nothing." I like "roll some stuff based on the situation. I'll narrate what happens based on your rolls."
So fine, Harb can roll Perception (with no penalty). He probably takes a turn at the poles too, but not a long one. Mostly he keeps a look-out.

Wow, I forget Harb only has a +4... ah well, I think it's still the best we have?
