Well, I am going to embarass myslef by saying I still haven't figured it out. I thought I figured out which symbols go with which objects, but the map with the red circles and symbols seems to work differently than I think (the map of the climb is crystal clear)...but I enjoyed spending another hour with the game, and that is super important! I'll probably keep trying, because I am stubborn, and eventually, it will reveal itself. Well, of all the games if looked at, this one kept my attention for the longest. :-)
