Ushi No Tane - Harvest Moon

I didnt see a topic here. but has anyone notice that there is a spot in Konohana mid mountain past the tree stump that is layin down half in the river behind the trees that you can find items. but i can only get to in winter when the river is frozen. has anyone found a way to get to it in other seasons?

You can only reach it in winter. It usually only has stones in it, and it is more likely to have an ore stone when it is snowing/ stormy.

yea, ive only found the ore stones and copper so far. will that be all that i will find? im 1 yr winter 10.

I have found that also. You can only get to it in winter it looks like, since you have to go on frozen water.

I have found a few ore and stones in it.

I do not see a tree stump in Kono Mid mountain area.

I do see a tree stump laying down in the river partially, in Kono High Mountain area.

I do see an area that looks like it might have something, but I cannot get to it. At least not yet.

Would you please show a screenshot of the area in question, if possible, unless it is the area that I am talking about?

If it is the same section, I thought that the only rivers to become frozen were the areas, where you hand fish.

I am hearing about accessing an area that you can only get to in Winter by walking on ice, and I have also heard, smash the ice with the hammer, in oder to access the area.

I apprecciate any and all help.

Thank you.
Currently, I am in my first Spring, so I am a long way from accessing the winter area.

right Tracey, I'll try to describe it to you, in kono mid mountain, go down the slide and on the left hand side of the screen there should be a river?

near the top of that river is a rock sticking out of the water, if you race the river you can jump on the stone and then jump again continuing your little journey to the left, you should find you're now on the over side of the river! Go south and then you should see a fallen tree and a couple more rocks poking out of the water

Yes, the spot you're thinking of with the downed tree log (not stump) across the river is correct. It's Kono-High (not mid). And yes, after 2 in-game years of playing I have only found stones of one type or another (silver, copper, ore, scrap). Be quite sure to check the lower treeline, as some stones cannot be seen. And just like the crack behind the waterfall and the LARGE hallow tree log in Blue-Low, this is a main gathering spot for ore stones during bad weather. If you don't check anything else in bad weather, check those three places!

I have not did any work on the tunnel, but I am not finding a slide yet in the mid mountain area.
I do see a slid and rock in the high section.

I might possibly see a slide in the winter though. Where is it at?



I have hit the area at the bottom of the screen with the hammer, and it pushes me back. How can I break that rock or boulder, so I can gain access to that area? I assume that it is a different area than the other one in question. Do I require a bear to break that boulder for me?

Thank you both.

That helps a lot.

Thank you.

Out of curiousity, can you fish at all in Winter?
I know that you cannot hand fish in winter.

When I heard about breaking ice with the hammer, what were they talking about exactly. I heard that in reference to gaining boots and old balls for the winter request?

I am still stocking up, so i will have them, when I need them.

I would like to be able to fish in winter though.

Thank you again.

Yes, fishing is great in winter, you just can't hand fish. To do so, walk to the end of any dock (NOT where the 'A' is visible, beyond that) and smash the ice with your hammer. Don't walk TOO close to the edge of the dock unless you have stamina and wish to fall in (for instance, to find something sparkly in the water!). Then just fish as usual from the 'A' spot on the dock.

Thank you.

So, I will mostly be hammering the area, that I want and need to stand on, such as the A spot on the deck
or
the area that I want the fishline to go through, such as in Ice fishing.

I appreciate your help.

You hammer the spot in the ice you'd like your line to go in. You must walk BEYOND the A spot to get to the edge of the dock, then hammer.
