The path became better: he saw cottage lights and smelled wood smoke.

Further up, the path becomes rocky yet easy to walk on unless in icy conditions.

But I marveled that the path to the castle could have become so overgrown.

The path stopped climbing, and became for a while nearly level.

The first 2-3 kilometres are easier to walk but after that the path become quite steep.

But their own path was becoming harder - so steep that steps had been cut into the rock face.

First, the path to executive power has become much better defined.

The higher he climbed, the steeper the path became.

However, the path that it will take from there on becomes progressively wild.

The path through the forest is becoming overgrown, and is sometimes difficult to follow.
