Teresa had to meet her long lost brother in the mountains of Australia. We fly there and he seems kind of weird. But then he turned out great. Her rich eccentric aunt was there as well and kept giving us odd advice (?) Later in the dream, my other friends are there and we ascend high into the mountains. It’s snowy and cold. We slide fast down wide snowy paths. At one I manage to stop moving right at the gate. When I touch the gate it falls down. There is a sheer drop down a cliff below. Teresa and I share an oh shit look and continue down the path. We pass many small, dark cave entrances that lead into tunnels. Looks like bears live in there. There is also a large cave with train tracks that disappear into the darkness. I nope out fast, sensing inhuman humans. It’s truly a beautiful snowy path but night has descended and we need to get back to camp. Inspired by the bear caves, I suggest building an igloo so we can stay and ski tomorrow. The idea is vetoed. The last step of the journey is climbing up a rock wall. For some reason I am first. Her brother throws down a rope. We use it to help pull ourselves up. Notably we are not clipped into the rope which is terribly dangerous. We get to almost the top and I am ready to pull myself over. Her brother says “be careful with the rope!” and DROPS it so I can’t climb up. Not malacipiy, that’s just how you’re supposed to do it I guess. He throws down two ropes with clips I need to attach to. I start panicking a bit because I’m tired and afraid of falling off this wall. Teresa below me helps me secure the clips and we all successfully make it to the top of the wall. I contemplate my brush with death for a moment before we head back to camp. At camp we are in a raised wooden deck with a roof. The fire gives a warm glow to the whole area. We are eating candy. I am lounging with a large pile of sour gummy worms on my stomach. Kendra complains we did not ski. I express my disbelief that her brother would drop the rope. “It was scary. We weren’t even clipped in! If I fell, then I was dead.” Teresa agrees. I shake my head and enjoy my gummy worms. My bf was supposed to visit but I was having second thoughts and nervous about him coming all the way out there and meeting my friends in such a strange situation.
