Wouldn't it be easy if you'd take a barrel with you?
I noticed you can fill those with one-hundred units of water.

You can do the same thing with a backpack, but, the problem that presents itself is that it slows your movement speed QUITE a bit.

Fill the barrel, then fast travel to the edge of the travelable land.

Then just keep throwing the barrel forward, pick it up, throw again, and so on? Shouldn't be a problem if you're only going up, the barrel will stop flying once it hits the ramps.

The problem you're facing will be when going down, or you have to get around a chasm/river..

What kind of statues are your masons making, that you think they have "maximum exposure"?
(Full frontal ones, apparently.  With very short beards.)

A strong enough adventurer won't have any trouble carrying it.

...or if you hurt your eye and manage to throw it behind you.

I remember one of my play now games, the human had the misfortune of spawning in a freezing biome during a game that I told myself no fast travel. Turns out freezing biomes are bad for the eyes... and while the naked adventurer spent nights almost freezing solid and being interrupted during sleep by freezing, his eyes were permanently damaged and he could only see 1 square in every direction. Made for an interesting game.

That means he was blind, a sight range of just one tile represents touching things.

How many kills did that one end up with?
