The Dig Hints
How do I get across the gap in the pathway?
1 of 7: Notice that water appears in that gap every once in a while.
2 of 7: So getting across may not be so difficult.
3 of 7: Just try to cross to the other side and Boston will automatically surf across.
4 of 7: Getting back is slightly more difficult for some reason -- you can't just surf across.
5 of 7: But there's a way that's nearly as simple.
6 of 7: Notice that big rock?
7 of 7: Push it over, and then cross over the bridge that you've made.
