In this last episode chronicling their explorations on the EVO Minecraft MOOC 2021 server before the start of EVOMC21, Teacher Vance and Bobbi Bear complete their figure 8 of travels to and from their Base 1 Trench Shelter in the plains adjacent to that prominent gash in the land. Teacher Vance relates the last chapter in the sage in this 30 minute video, and in these few words here.

This one last EVO Minecraft MOOC safari adventure tutorial starts where we left Walton Burns at the Lonely Mesa-top shelter in the terracotta badlands, where even the carrots hardly ever grow, descend the steep but naturally occurring terracotta steps down to red sand, cross to the next island, traverse its mildly challenging terracotta and red sand blocks to reach the spit of land at its far end, cross to the next island, and trek up another set of terracotta blocks to our mesa-top Sunset Lanai shelter on the second island over. After a brief rest overnight, we pass through the sparse vegetation at the top, descend back down to red sand, and island-hop over to white sand, then come out on green grass and trees to emerge on the plains where we easily regain our Base-1Trench shelter in early afternoon.

There's still time in the day, so we continue on a clear trail over to the well-tended and prosperous plains village just a hop skip and a space-bar induced jump away from our castle not far from there in the plains. This is in turn not far from the Spawn Point where our figure 8 adventure began over 20 episodes ago.

Teacher Vance and Bobbi Bear hope you have enjoyed accompanying us on these safari tutorial adventures.
