Introduction:
Steep is an extreme sports simulator dealing with skiing, snowboarding, para-gliding, and glide-suiting. It is an open, sand-box style game to where you can play however you would like- playing any event, any difficulty, at any time. It is unlike most games of the past (Shaun White, SSX) in the sense that it is meant to be a "simulator" as opposed to the run-of-the-mill winter game. Between events you can feel free to explore all that the mountain has to offer whether it be new landmarks, new lines, or new drop zones. Steep is a decent attempt at a genre that has been a disappointment since the release of the current-gen consoles.
Walkthrough:
Step 1: Complete 115 events and earn a Bronze or better
Completing each event with a bronze medals will not only help you gain access to the invitational events but also net you XP to start working towards level 25. The earlier events will come easy to most, which will likely help towards step 3, gaining a gold medal in every event. The competitions across the mountain vary on which sport you must compete in and what the overall objective is. During this step, before each event, be sure to pull out your binoculars before starting in order to scout the immediate are for drop zones. These will help unlock even more events that must be discovered and make Step 2 less of a hassle later on.
During this step you will unlock:

Step 2: Discover 110 Drop Zones and 149 Points of Interest
As previously stated, before each event you should use your binoculars to scout for drop zones through the the map. These are marked with black and white lines and if you are close enough a message will pop up telling the player that they can "discover" it. Points of interest are generally snow parks, hotels/resorts/villages or places with natural obstacles. Some of these will be discovered through playing all events but some you will have to use the map and the provided coordinate guides to locate. NOTE: Some Drop Zones/Locations are locked until you reach level 25.
During this step you will unlock:

Step 3: Earn 115 Gold Medals/Clean up
Now that you have discovered all events, go back and earn a Gold Medal in each one. By now you will have an overall better feel of the game mechanics and know when to switch between sports based on your style of play. Most events will be much easier your second go around but some will take multiple runs based on your level of skill. To see the events, and which ones you still need a gold medal in, simply press and it will bring up a list of all events categorized by sport with the events you still need gold medals in at the top of each respective list: LINK
