❄️ Welcome to Mt. Yurbuttsk!
The NEW winter map for RV There Yet introduces extreme weather mechanics, inner tube sledding, and some of the most challenging bridge puzzles in the game. Unlike Mabutts Valley, this snow-covered mountain route forces you to navigate blizzard storms, use wooden planks strategically, and master advanced winch techniques just to survive the first checkpoint.
🗺️ Map Overview:
- 🏔️ Location: Mt. Yurbuttsk (Your Buttsk)
- 🌨️ Weather: Extreme blizzards with 15-second intervals
- 🎿 New Feature: Inner tube sledding & ski lift
- ⚠️ Difficulty: Significantly harder than Mabutts Valley
💡 Pro Tip: This map requires careful planning. The first bridge alone can take multiple attempts if you don't use wooden planks correctly.

🆕 New Features & Mechanics
❄️ What's New in Mt. Yurbuttsk
🛷 Inner Tube Sledding
The map features inner tubes that you can ride down snowy slopes. Left-click to "Ride" and experience some of the most fun (and dangerous) moments in the game. There's even a ski lift to bring tubes back up!
🌨️ Extreme Weather System
Blizzard storms hit every 15-20 seconds and will blow you sideways off bridges and cliffs. The wind is strong enough to kill you if you're not careful. You'll get a "Frozen" damage status from snowballs and cold exposure.
🪵 Wooden Plank Mechanics
Unlike Mabutts Valley where planks were optional, you MUST use wooden planks to cross the first bridge. The bridge has collapsing sections that will trap your RV if you don't plan ahead.
🔗 Enhanced Winch System
You can now winch to trees and wooden poles, not just designated points. This is essential for the bridge puzzles. There's also a second winch controller available at the gas station.
🏕️ Starting Area & Equipment
📦 Essential Equipment Checklist
✅ Must-Have Items
- • Wooden Planks (2-3 minimum)
- • Flippertronic (vehicle flipper)
- • Jack-Powered Pole
- • Winch Controller
- • Engine Oil
- • EpiPens (2+)
🎿 Optional/Fun Items
- • Inner Tubes (for sledding)
- • Ski Goggles (cosmetic)
- • Ski Masks (cosmetic)
- • Fireworks
- • Flare Gun
⚠️ Critical Storage Tip
Use the side hooks on the RV railings to store one inner tube. This frees up interior space for essential survival items. Many players miss these hooks!
💡 Pro Tip - Outfit Saves
Changing outfits (hats, goggles, masks) triggers an auto-save. Keep spare cosmetics in the RV to force save points when needed!
🛷 Inner Tube Sledding Guide
🎿 How to Sled Like a Pro
-
1.
Find an Inner Tube: There are multiple tubes at the starting campsite and near the ski lift area.
-
2.
Position on a Slope: You need to be on a decline for the tube to work. Flat ground won't let you start.
-
3.
Left-Click to Ride: When positioned correctly, left-click shows "Ride" prompt. You cannot steer once riding—you're at the mercy of gravity!
-
4.
Aim for Jumps: There are natural ramps and jumps. Try to hit them for maximum airtime (and chaos).
💀 Death Trap Alert
You CAN die from inner tube crashes. High-speed impacts with rocks or going off cliffs will kill you. It's hilarious but also wastes time if you're trying to progress.
🎯 Fun Challenge
Try to hit the jump and land on the wooden bridge below. It's incredibly difficult but satisfying when you nail it!
🌉 First Bridge Puzzle (The Killer)
🪵 The Wooden Plank Solution
This bridge has collapsing sections that will trap your RV's rear bumper. Many players spend 30+ minutes here before realizing the solution. Here's the correct approach:
✅ Step-by-Step Solution
-
1.
Stop BEFORE the V-notch section: Don't drive onto the collapsing part. Stop when you see the lighter-colored boards.
-
2.
Exit the RV and grab wooden planks: You need at least 2 planks from your storage.
-
3.
Place planks across the gap: Position them to create a solid surface for your tires. You can only carry one plank at a time.
-
4.
Drive slowly across: Have a co-op partner guide you if possible. The planks prevent the collapse.
-
5.
Watch for blizzards: Storms will blow you off the bridge. Wait for calm weather before crossing.
❌ Common Mistakes
- • Trying to drive fast to "jump" the gap (doesn't work)
- • Using the Flippertronic instead of planks (wrong tool)
- • Attempting to winch across without planks (you'll get stuck)
- • Driving during a blizzard (instant death)
🌨️ Extreme Weather Survival
❄️ Understanding the Blizzard System
🌬️ Storm Mechanics
- • Frequency: Storms hit every 15-20 seconds
- • Duration: Lasts 10-15 seconds per storm
- • Effect: Blows players and RV sideways with extreme force
- • Trigger Points: Storms are more frequent on bridges and exposed areas
🧊 Frozen Damage Status
Getting hit by snowballs or prolonged cold exposure gives you "Frozen" damage. This status effect:
- • Reduces movement speed
- • Doesn't go away naturally
- • Requires warmth (grill/fire) to remove
💡 Survival Strategies
- • Hug walls/mountains: Wind pushes you against solid surfaces instead of off cliffs
- • Wait out storms: Don't attempt bridge crossings during blizzards
- • Stay inside RV: You're safe from wind inside the vehicle
- • Use beer for strength: Drink beer before pushing stuck vehicles in storms
🔗 Advanced Winch Strategies
🌲 New Winch Mechanics
Mt. Yurbuttsk introduces tree and pole winching—a game-changer for bridge puzzles. Here's what you need to know:
✅ Can Winch To:
- • Trees (any tree)
- • Wooden poles (bridge supports)
- • Wooden planks (even ground-level ones)
- • Bridge beams
❌ Cannot Winch To:
- • Metal structures
- • Rocks
- • Snow/ice surfaces
- • Other vehicles (yet)
🎯 Bridge Winch Technique
When your RV gets stuck on a collapsing bridge section:
- 1. Exit RV and grab winch controller
- 2. Find nearest tree or pole AHEAD of the RV
- 3. Attach winch cable (it has good range)
- 4. Get back in RV and toggle "Front Winch"
- 5. Slowly winch forward while gently accelerating
⚠️ Winch Controller Warning
You only have ONE winch controller until you reach the gas station. If you drop it off a cliff during a blizzard, you're screwed. Keep it safe!
⛽ Gas Station Checkpoint
🏁 First Major Checkpoint
After surviving the bridge puzzle, you'll reach the gas station—your first real checkpoint. This is a safe zone to repair and restock.
📦 Available at Gas Station:
- • Welding Machine (repair structural damage)
- • Second Winch Controller (backup!)
- • Additional Wooden Planks (4+ planks)
- • Flare Gun
- • Fireworks
- • Revive Station (multiplayer)
💡 Checkpoint Strategy
Before entering the checkpoint zone: Stop and collect ALL items from the gas station area. Then drive into the checkpoint to trigger the save. This way, if you die later, you respawn with full supplies.
🗺️ What's Next?
Beyond the gas station, the map continues with more challenging bridges, a gondola section, and additional weather-based puzzles. The route loops around the entire mountain before returning to the finish line near the starting area.
