Mount Sheridan towers over the surrounding forest, rising in at a steady pace all the way to the peak. Snow padds most of the mountain, and the area that is bare is mere rock and soil. Every summer the snow melts away, however, revealing some sparse patches of grass. Sheridan is a frightfully cold place during the cooler seasons, with the wind being sharp and bitter. Things get better as summer draws near, but it still remains cool; only the sun gives warmth. When it rains the soil gets very wet and muddy, making it loose and sticky.
