I'm playing The Long Dark. I've been tasked with climbing the mountain to get to Perseverance Mills. My question is, can I return to Milton afterwards? I have a lot of stuff hoarded and I would hate to leave it all behind.
The Long Dark: Can I return to Milton after I finish episode 1

OK, I found out - you CANNOT return to Milton! You can take whatever you can carry though, so take that distress pistol, those military rations and good quality tools.
Some people have complained of a bug where they lose all their gear when starting Episode 2. Here's exactly what I did to avoid it:
After
You can rest and eat. Then climb the other rope to continue.
Then follow the path round the mountain until you come to a cave. Enter the cave and follow the fairly linear path. When you come to the end a cutscene will play. DON'T PRESS ANYTHING! Let the cutscene play out, and also let the credits roll. They're not that long.
