I like the idea of an out door adventure-ish.... I've had an Idea running my head for a while though so it might not make good sense with this out doors theme....
A druid grove, lots of stone circles, forest type things etc, and a small stream that have erroded it's way into a dungeon that has been sealed away/closed off/caved in. I don't know whats in there, or where ther front door is, but I was thinking something could be killing/adversly effecting all the creatures around the hole.

I don't know if the mapping program used for the cooperative dungeons does outside stuff, but I have a suggestion if it doesn't. Use it to create a step-type pyramid and the outlining ruins. It would be more of an outside dungeon crawl, but with the trees you can add secret groves or whatever.
Of course I also like the idea of a multi-level linked dungeon that someone mentioned earlier in this thread.

I am currently playtesting CD4 in my campaign, and it looks like it is going to be one awesome adventure. The scope of the dungeon within a dungeon looks amazing. The players are having much fun with it.
The rooms are very inspired and fun to play. I am having such a blast. The details in the room descriptions really adds much texture to the environment, and smoothly sets the tone of the adventure.
One thing that we will fix in this adventure and that you guys will have to check for the next CD: when there is a possibility that combat in a room attracts reaction in other rooms, that will have to be stipulated in the room itself, not in the rooms wre the denizens might be alerted. The fight in room 2 was supposed to possibly attract the attention of critters from other rooms, but because it wasn't stipulated in room 2 per se, I missed that.
CD4 should be ready for the holidays.
CD5 will take a totally different approach. For one, I won't make use of Interactive Dungeon for the map, and instead of describing room 1 like I did so far, I will describe the final room. This way, I hope it will help setting the tone of the adventure.
Anyways, just wanted to tell you guys that you did a kick-arse job on this one, and it easilly surpases many published adventures I have seen. I am simply amazed.

Greetings fellow ENworlders.
We are in the final stages of editing CD4. In a month or two, the whole thing should be available for download. Thanks to all contributors who believe in this project and are patiently waiting for the thing to finally come out.
Very special thanks go out to MonkeyDragon, Enkhidu, and Tarchon who are quite simply amazing and thorough in their editing work. It is not really possible from an outsider's point of view to understand just how much work they have to do to deliver such a fine product.
I also want to underline Mark Clover's work. He's not the type of guy to be looking for praise, but there are so many things he does for CD's. From the first CD till now, he gave me an opportunity to take a random experiment of mine and turn it into a full fledged published product. That takes faith and devotion, and he gave me both.
Stay put, as soon as CD4 is released, I should submit CD5 for you contribs, and let me tell you, this one will be one hell of a roller coaster ride.
