Level 185

Level 185 is the 186th level of the Backrooms.
Level 185 is a large grassland in four main directions. Each section of the grassland has a "theme." All themes appear to represent their own season like ones from The Frontrooms. These seasons range in severity from cold winters to hot summers. The four seasons that do exist in Level 185 are spring, summer, fall, and winter. The terrain can vary slightly depending on the section the wanderer is in. For example, winter might be both a large mountain and a long forest. Another interesting trait of Level 185 is that far in the level, the terrain will change when no one is there (this only happens 500 miles or more into the level). Interestingly, items placed will stay in the same place until a wanderer comes back to the place where the item will most likely fall to the ground. The level will usually fade into another level as it is perfectly stable and No-Clipping is almost impossible. The day-and-night cycle in this level is constant and stays at the same rate as the day-and-night cycle in The Frontrooms. 
==Northern Section (Summer)==
The northern direction is a large field of grass in which appears to be a mid-summer type temperature which barely deviates (approximately 82-85°F or 27.8-29.4°C). Trees are not usually found in this area which stretches approximately 2,000 miles (3,220 kilometers). In this area, lakes of Almond Water are found frequently and is perfectly consumable. This is the second most populated zone as the weather is at a sustained mild temperature compared to some other sections. Rarely, small forests can be found.
No form of precipitation occurs in this section. The sky may very rarely show grey clouds but usually, has very few clouds. Small houses can be found in this section if gone farther than 200 miles (320 kilometers). These houses appear to be simple plain houses. They have important necessities and resources inside like Almond Water, Moth Jelly, and other important materials which are essential for survival. These houses mysteriously refill themselves every time one leaves the house or while one is sleeping. (Abusing this method does not cause the house to refill with supplies and creates a cooldown of 1 hour if a wanderer rapidly goes in and out or takes repeated quick naps. It is recommended not to do this.) It is unknown who created these houses and how the supplies periodically refill. These houses also come with a backyard and most have animals.
==Eastern Section (Spring) ==
The eastern section shows spring terrain which is mainly mountains, forests, and plains. There is also a large river made of drinkable Almond Water that runs through the entire 4,000 miles (6,440 kilometers) of this section. The weather here can change depending on multiple factors and is usually at an easily changing 49-71°F (9.4-21.7°C). Multiple communities are found in this area due to its large area and plentiful materials. Many animals roam this area and wood is abundant which makes this level an especially habitable environment. Rain may occasionally occur every 14-28 days and lasts approximately 1 hour to 2 days. The sector of the level is usually completely calm.
Of the small hills and mountains within 500 miles of the center, the first large snow capped mountain (named Mount Spring due to the spring-like temperature and the hot spring at the top) is widely popular to wanderers in this level because its large hot spring at the top. It is approximately 300 miles (about 480 kilometers) into the spring sector. There is one small building at the top of this level with household necessities and survival items packed inside. This building refills itself periodically and it is unknown how it restocks itself much like the plain houses in the northern section of Level 185. It is unknown what the source of the heat in the hot spring is but is assumed to be a geothermal heat source from inside of the mountain. M.E.G. Base Season (see Bases & Colonies) is currently investigating the source of the heat.
A large lake which is approximately 50 miles (about 80.5 kilometers) wide sits at about 350 miles (about 560 kilometers) in from the start of Level 185. Although it is wildly far away from the starting point, is important to most life as most Frontrooms creatures that spawn in the eastern section appear to spawn in this area. From here they are spread out across the rest of the eastern section in an interesting phenomenon. As soon as spawning in, (not from being given birth of 2 of the same animal) the animals will be given 10 times their original speed in order to be spread out across the large and vast area of the eastern section. It is unknown how this phenomenon occurs, but it is assumed to be a feature of the eastern section of Level 185.
==Southern Section (Autumn/Fall)==
The southern section of Level 185 is the smallest and spans 1,000 miles (about 1,600 kilometers). Leaves on the ground are abundant and small streams and creeks can be found, but none as long or wide as the Almond Water river in the eastern section. Small caves can also be found in this area where mountains jut out of the ground. The least amount of groups reside in this area due to its uninteresting nature and lack of supplies. The only reason this section is widely used is its abundance of timber and an easy exit due to it being the smallest in length. Mushrooms are also farmed in this section which make it slightly more useful. Small cabins an be found in this level with some useful supplies and some non useful supplies such as broken hunting guns, the heads of axes, fishing rods, buckets, and small vials of Liquid Pain. They refill themselves periodically. (Time between refills can range from from one hour to multiple months). It is unknown how these cabins came to be just like the northern section's plain houses although no correlation is shown between these two structures besides the fact that they both refill themselves.
==Western Section (Winter) ==
 The last section is the western winter section. It looks to be a winter plain that averages a temperature of 15°F to -4°F (-9.5°C to -20°C). Precipitation occurs often approximately every 2-6 days where snow falls. Rarely (approximately 2-4 months), a snowstorm or blizzard will happen. This is the most dangerous factor in the western section as many disappearances have been recorded during the blizzard event. It is recommended to stay inside when this event occurs. It is mostly a plain, but small forests can be found sparsely. The deepest snow has been recorded at 30 feet (9 meters) which may also be a hazard. This section spans 1,500 miles (approximately 2,400 kilometers) from the center of Level 185. Small abandoned lodges may be found in this area. Resources inside include Almond Water, Moth Jelly, and very small amounts of Liquid Pain inside some rare science rooms. Other important weapons or tools can also be found like Greek Fire which is found in the staff warehouse. Other objects can be found in the lodges like jackets, rifles, various food objects from The Frontrooms, and other necessities. The lodges periodically refill themselves and is a common place for bases. (See below.) Broken snow materials have been found buried in the snow which might show proof of earlier civilizations. This is unlikely though because most of the found materials are of modern style and technology. Some materials found include, shovels, snow mobiles, and rarely intact hand warmers. The winter section is often regarded as the most dangerous section of Level 185, but many people state that it is safe.

*Going dastardly far in Level 336 can send you to the summer section of this level.
=== Exits===
*No-Clipping through a non-snow-covered tree in the winter section will send you to Level 240.

This is a transcript of an email sent to M.E.G. Base Season from an unknown group that have been researching Mt. Spring:
Subject: Mt. Spring Is A Volcano?
Email: So here's what happened. Some guy came into our place. Don't know what he thought he was doing but he said he was some kind of volcanologist back on Earth. Anywho he came up to us and asked if he could join our group randomly. We said sure since we had a very little amount of people in our group. He asked for a bubble level and a camera. We had an abundance of supplies from trading with the Lodge Hub. Ten days later, he was telling us that Mount Spring is a FREAKING VOLCANO. He had proof of it and told us to tell you guys. I don't know why the hell Mt Spring is a volcano but that would explain why there was a hot spring on top of it. The guy also said that the volcano is "becoming exponentially more active" or something of that nature. Whatever that is, it doesn't sound good. Not sure if you guys have any volcanologists on your team, but this guy's spitting facts. He says this thing's gonna blow in less than 10 years and it's something of a really big supervolcano. Like the kind that can blow up like over 4000 miles. I'll leave it to you all but the volcanologist just left a day ago. He said something about Level 3 and that's all. Hope you can make something out of it.
