An ice chute is here. If you wish to take advantage of it, then you will have to expend a Rope and Grappling Hook during a scripted interaction. You will notice a gleaming light on a ledge during the scripted interaction.
If you attempt the to reach the ledge, the stalagmite holding the Rope and Grappling Hook will start to give. You can assign a character with a Dexterity of at least 16 to climb back up and secure the Rope and Grappling Hook. If you fail to make the Dexterity check, or don't even bother attempting it while trying to reach the ledge a second time, the party will fall down and sustain injuries that will linger until the party rests. If you make the Dexterity check and reach the ledge, you'll acquire a Rod called the Golden Gaze and an Emerald.
You can also simply climb down, in which case everybody should get down smoothly without any injuries as long as they have enough ranks in the Athletics skill.
If you simply climbed down, or made the Dexterity check to secure the Rope and Grappling Hook, the ice chute will then serve as a way to reach the Lower Caves at #32.
