This is where Rainsford fell into the sea from his yacht. This is where the bad events begin to unfold. This is the first event.
This is the area where Rainsford had swam to when he was in the sea. After this he just layed there and got the best sleep of his life.
“Some wounded thing, by the evidence a large animal, had thrashed about in the underbrush; the jungle weeds were crushed down and the moss was lacerated; one patch of weeds was stained crimson. A small, glittering object not far away caught Rainsford’s eye and he picked it up. It was an empty cartridge." This shows that the animal that was here had died. This makes him more cautious.
"But as he forged along he saw to his great astonishment that all the lights were in one enormous building--a lofty structure with pointed towers plunging upward into the gloom." This is the first structure he comes across. This confirms that someone lives here.
“A big tree with a thick trunk and outspread branches was near by, and, taking care to leave not the slightest mark, he climbed up into the crotch, and, stretching out on one of the broad limbs, after a fashion, rested." This is where the first encounter happens. While rainsford is resting Zaroff finds him but leaves him alone, so he can hunt another day.
“Then, as he stepped forward, his foot sank into the ooze. He tried to wrench it back, but the muck sucked viciously at his foot as if it were a giant leech. With a violent effort, he tore his feet loose. He knew where he was now. Death Swamp and its quicksand” The Death swamp was talked about before the hunt began.
"You've done well, Rainsford," the voice of the general called. "Your Burmese tiger pit has claimed one of my best dogs." After Rainsford got his leg out of the quicksand, he dug up a trap with stakes at the bottom in the quicksand. Then, he covered it up with weeds and branches where Rainsford ended up claiming one of Zaroff's best hounds.
“He thought of a native trick he had learned in Uganda. He slid down the tree. He caught hold of a springy young sapling and to it he fastened his hunting knife, with the blade pointing down the trail; with a bit of wild grapevine he tied back the sapling. Then he ran for his life” This trap that he made is the one that got Ivan.
