Ranger and Open World Utility

Member, Alpha Two
This is more of a thematic/class fantasy thing, but I think it would be cool if the Ranger's kit had a lot of utility skills.
We've got a couple skills which fit that description already, but when the 25-50 skills get added I'd love to see some of the following ideas played with. Just spit balling here, so some may be more out there than others:
Of course every class should have a handful of skills like this, but if any archetype is gonna specialize in it, Ranger would be a good fit.

- Climbing, maybe tied to stamina BotW-style
- Physics-based grappling rope, unlike Rogue's zipline-style this could be used to swing (also potential networking nightmare)
- Tracking, lots of ways this could be implemented. Maybe something to do with the hunting profession?
- More traps
- The ability to set up small campsites, maybe these could function like mini-taverns for small groups of players
- More options for skills themed around tools and makeshift gadgets, rather than druid-style nature magic
- The ability to find footprints of wandering world bosses, maybe they could be interacted with to get an estimate circle on the map of where the boss might be?
Of course every class should have a handful of skills like this, but if any archetype is gonna specialize in it, Ranger would be a good fit.
