Why Are the Klondike-Mountains @Plarium so #Misty? Why so-Covered in #Fog? @Vizor_games is Puzzled, & maybe @NatGeo gives us a Hint | @getFANDOM #Mist #Foggy #Mistily #Mistiness
On Klondike: The Lost Expedition, each new expedition leads to an area that's covered in fog! (you can't tell what you're digging-toward until you clear the next obstruction ... makes the player's "bird's-eye view" kinda useless.)
I want to find out 'what's causing the misty fog,' but the closest 'game info'-source I can find simply says something mysterious---Inuit folklore about 'the mountain's need to hide its secrets.
National Geographic explains real mountain-mist in a report linked through 'that word' below; but first I want to understand that word better. And I find you understand words better if you look at 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum)
The word “Misty (like #Mists #Misted #Misting)” is built on ancient words that mean "a #Cloud on the Ground, Precipitation with |Droplets Smaller than Raindrops" (possibly related to ancient words that mean "to |Urinate" ... also refers to "Haze (of Dust in the Air or -of |Teardrops in the Eyes) Obscuring objects in the Distance").
The word "Cloud" is built on ancient words that mean Mass of Rock, Hill (obviously due to the Mountain-like form of |Cumulus Clouds ... the word's also related to |Clod).
The word “Fog (like #Fogged #Fogging #Fogs #Foggy #FogHorn #FogLights #InAFog)” is built on ancient words that mean |Spray, Shower, |Snowdrift, |Damp, Moist (or--when 'Fog' refers to "the Long Second-Growth of |Grass after |Mowing--Rotten & |Decaying sea-grass (see |Foul)).
I think the lighthouse you build might cut through the fog ... or not.

I appreciate your comment, and I'll probably approve it & publish it soon (give me about a week before you try to post it again when it doesn't publish immediately ... thanks)
