I finished this Hex Crawl with my friends this last weekend. In total we played for roughly ~10 hours in total and had an amazing time. I had never run a Hex Crawl before, and TL:DR for other young DMs I would say this is a great learning module to start Hex Crawls with. It really teaches you to let your players get lost, use theater of the mind and letting encounters be resolved any number of ways, having wandering events, and using events from one hex to effect the events in another! My players personally, tried to fight the long bear, almost died to it but escaped, met the Mummy and became best friends with her and the Electromancer in the dam, got almost all the treasure, and even freed the Fire Elemental! All within 21 days! I had a fun moment where I rolled that Vucci was with the Howling Poets, and one of my players almost stayed behind to become one of them until another player beat them in a poetry contest to get them back. So much fun stuff, and I am so going to try and get my other groups to try this out too.
