More ice based shenanigans with the humanx backdrop. Towards the end I think some of the distances don't quite add up, I'm sure one canyon is a week long the first time they go down it.
The female characters are less weird in this one too. I wouldn't go as far as "well rounded" as I'm not sure any are.
