Northwood Ridge Quarry

Northwood Ridge Quarry is a location on the Island in 2287.
==Layout==
The quarry is inhabited by many trappers. The center of the quarry comprises a water-filled ditch holding several mirelurks, along with an array of explosives which can be triggered from a safe distance by pressing a button on the balcony of the main shack overlooking the quarry on the north end. The explosives can be detonated repeatedly, effectively killing any mirelurks in the ditch. Once all mirelurks have been killed, a mirelurk queen will emerge from the watery ditch; the queen will be immune to the explosives, and must therefore be defeated by other means. There are also a few shacks on the southwest side of the quarry, one of which has a tension trigger connected to its door to release a frag grenade upon entry if not disarmed.
The interior area of the quarry can be accessed through a door in the northeast area guarded by a machinegun turret, on the back wall of a smaller area of the ditch littered with mirelurk eggs. Inside is a short tunnel with several trappers on a crude multi-level wooden structure at the back of the cave. A steamer trunk is near a bed on the highest level of the structure.
