Just keep putting one foot in front of the other. Still a lot of trees right now, but the further you go the more they will thin out, and the broader view you will have. Eventually you'll reach a crest where you'll be able to see a good bit all the way around, and you'll have a better perspective.
"Always go straight forward, and if you meet the devil, cut him in two and go between the pieces." - William Sturgis, clipper ship captain, 1830's.
