Pull your paws back and try a different direction

From Wikiventure

With much effort, you pull your paws out of the muck and try a different direction. Not long after you start walking, you feel a strange, flat surface beneath your paws. You open your mouth and scent the air. The stench of twolegs is all around you. You stare down where you can just barely see your paws and realize you are stand on something right over the lake!
