As a side note before we begin, these actions will upgrade this expedition into a major exploration, opening up the possibility for danger. Assuming everyone is alright with that...
The pings continue along a parallel path, so it's safe to assume they're connected in some way. It's probably pretty safe to assume they're some sort of tracks, actually, being that they're always evenly spaced. As the trio follows, continuing northeast into the forest, they will occasionally see glimpses of metal rails peeking out from the earth and pine needles. Here and there they can even catch sight of a rotted wooden plank between them. Assuming these are railroad tracks, nobody's used them in a long, long time.
The trail leads them right up to the banks of the river, where the remains of an old bridge jut out over the water. Unfortunately, there's a five-foot gap in said bridge, with only a few decaying beams left on the opposite shore. It could be possible to shuffle out and try to jump the gap, but it's difficult to say how sturdy any of this structure still is.
