It’s never as simple as crossing a river. Not in any fantasy roleplaying game, anyway.

DM: Are you all ready to move on?

Pinkie Pie: Sure are! Let’s roll, girls!

DM: You leave the thicker portion of the jungle… and after a short period of travel, you discover a raging river running perpendicular to your path.

Applejack: …Jus’ to recap: A cliff, some trees, and now a river.

DM: What, I get no credit for the manticore?

Twilight Sparkle: I don’t suppose there’s a ford we can use…?

Rainbow Dash: Uh, HELLO? Two of us can FLY across and carry the others.

Rarity: I hate to remind you of the cliff scenario…

Fluttershy: Is this normal? The river, that is? I mean, uh… I’m rolling Nature.

Rainbow Dash: Too late now. I kinda wanna see what it is.<br/>
Twilight Sparkle: Me too, actually.<br/>
Fluttershy: Ohh… If you say so…
