This guide is designed to help you if you struggle with the overall progression.
General tips
Moreover, as soon as you discover a new water source, be sure to fish for a minute or two. A couple of tries should be enough to allow you to get a new entry in your journal.
Eventually, do not hesitate to explore the mountain away from the main trail, because many chests and resources are hidden around the mountain.
