brick Mountain Adventure
help our intrepid explorer get through the dangerous pass through the cliffs! going from start (red) to finish (green), you must alternate moves of two steps and three steps. You must stay on the paths at all times (no jumping over the river), and each series of steps must be in a straight line. for example, you cannot make one step, turn, and then make a second step. You can only turn between moves of two steps and three steps. You may start by either moving forward two or three steps.
