Nancy Drew: The White Wolf of Icicle Creek Hints
How do I work the rope?
1 of 8: If you remember, Trapper Dan said his pig Mary used to help him with this.
2 of 8: While the rope is held taut, something happens back at the lodge to reveal one of the animal counters you need to open the door to the Needle.
3 of 8: You don't have a pig to hold the rope taut for you, but you do have Isis. Your only difficulty is how to get her up here, since wolves can't climb ladders.
4 of 8: They can ride in elevators, though, and you can see a nifty little elevator at the end of the passage beyond the rope. But where does the elevator let out?
5 of 8: Go back down to the main room and look at the map box again. See that arrow in the upper right corner? That's the elevator, and luckily for you, that passage doesn't have a gate to open. So all you have to do is give Isis commands to send her to that arrow. When you go back up the ladder to the rope, there she is, ready to help.
6 of 8: Once Isis is in place, look at the pulley at the top of the rope and click on it to make Isis grab it for you. Now you have to hotfoot it back to the lodge, zoom! (You don't really have to run; as long as you don't make any stops along the way, you'll get there in time.)
7 of 8: Once you arrive back at the lodge, go upstairs without stopping to talk to anyone and walk to the end of the hall by the fireplace. Look above the fireplace, and bingo! There's the pig counter.
8 of 8: If the pig's mouth is not open, you stopped along the way and Isis got tired and let go of the rope. Go back to the tunnels and start over, and this time don't stop for anything.
