@KatherinWinter Your didn't really state out the swimming part as much as you did the others so wasn't that certain as to what to post. Also out at gym atm.
@KatherinWinter depending on their abilities there is various ways. Though the main thing was being clear of what the next obstacle was. sense your first two was pretty clear of what the obstacle was, then this one you just mention it in your character's post which made it bit confusing.
