The North Mountain lookout, officially designated as Firewatch Tower #5 before the War, is a location in the Savage Divide region of Appalachia in 2102. It is located east of Sunnytop Ski Lanes base lodge.
Background[edit | edit source]
The tower used to house two operators who took their Halloween celebrations to the extreme. This involved excessive decoration of the tower, hosting a party, and throwing furniture off the balcony. As punishment for repeatedly ignoring warnings about their unsanctioned festivities, they were threatened with termination by their employer, the U.S. National Park Service.
Layout[edit | edit source]
A locked (Picklock varies) explosives crate sits on the ground under the tower. The stairs are littered with assorted junk and containers, including fridges, toolboxes, and a set of binoculars.
The room at the top of the lookout is decorated for Halloween, covered in Halloween motifs, jack-o-lanterns, and hanging paper bats. Halloween costumes and discarded plastic cups cover the floor, evidence of a long-concluded party. A poster for Freddy Fear's House of Scares hangs on the window, likely the supplier of all the Halloween paraphernalia.
Notable loot[edit | edit source]
- Three department notices - Notes, on the table in the lookout.
- Halloween costume witch hat - On a table in the lookout.
- Halloween costume skeleton - On the floor in the lookout.
