Since Ron didn't go into the Forest in PS/SS, he went in for the first
time in CoS. They already had instructions to "follow the spiders",
which is Ron's worst fear, and going somewhere new, and known to be
dangerous, would only make this fear worse. JKR didn't let Ron into
the Forest in PS/SS so that he could show his bravery and loyalty in
CoS.
