## **GOLDFIELD MOUNTAIN COMPLEX**

The complex is a vast and sprawling underground bunker that was built to withstand a variety of attacks and disasters. The USCPF is responsible for the security, maintenance, and operation of the complex, ensuring that the bunker is always ready to receive and protect civilians in times of crisis.

The USCPF was established after a series of devastating natural disasters and terrorist attacks that left many parts of the country in ruins. The government recognized the need for a specialized force to respond quickly to emergencies and protect civilians from harm. The USCPF was created to fill this role, and the Goldfield Mountain Complex was established as its headquarters.

The complex is a marvel of engineering, with multiple levels and chambers that can house thousands of people for extended periods. The USCPF has stocked the bunker with enough food, water, and medical supplies to sustain the inhabitants for years if necessary.

The Goldfield Mountain Complex is more than just a military base; it is a symbol of hope and resilience in a world that is constantly threatened by disaster and chaos.

## **BOULDER COVE**

Boulder Cove was once a bustling town in Arizona, with its unique charm and character. The locals were friendly and welcoming, and there was always something to do or see. The gunshop was a popular spot for hunters and outdoors enthusiasts, while the mechanic kept all the vehicles in town running smoothly. The grocery stores offered a wide variety of fresh produce and other essentials, and the beach near the coast leading to Western Lake Mead was a popular spot for swimming, boating, and fishing.

However, everything changed after the nuking. Boulder Cove became a post-apocalyptic wasteland, with enemies of all kinds wandering around. Mutants, zombies, and other dangerous creatures now roamed the streets, making life difficult for the few survivors who remained. Despite the challenges, some brave souls continued to call Boulder Cove home, taking advantage of the good loot and relative safety from hostiles. But for many, the risks outweighed the benefits, and they chose to move on to safer places. Still, there was something special about Boulder Cove, something that kept drawing people back. Maybe it was the sense of community, the natural beauty of the area, or simply the stubborn determination of those who refused to give up. Whatever the reason, Boulder Cove remained a place of both hope and danger, where anything could happen at any time.

## **THE FRONTIER MILITIA ENCAMPMENT**

The Frontier Militia Encampment, or "Source" as it's known to the locals, has a dark and mysterious past. Once a bustling mineshaft, it was abandoned after a nuclear disaster left many of its inhabitants sick and some even turned into gootraxians. The entrance to the mineshaft has been boarded up for years, but that hasn't stopped the gootraxians from making their way out and into the public. Despite the efforts of the militants, the area remains unsafe due to the overwhelming number of gootraxians. Survivors of the incident are tight-lipped about what they saw inside, leaving many to wonder what secrets lie hidden within the mineshaft. As a result, the area is avoided by most, with only the bravest venturing near the encampment.

## **THE TUNNEL**

The Tunnel has always been a mysterious and intriguing location for travelers passing through Lake Mead. It's a narrow passage that connects the eastern and western sides of the lake, and it has a history that dates back to the days of the Global Coalition Special Assistance (GSCA).

The eastern side of the tunnel has an abandoned military checkpoint that was once used by the GSCA. The checkpoint was established to monitor the movement of people and goods in and out of the area, but it was eventually abandoned due to a lack of funding and resources.

Over time, the checkpoint became a popular spot for adventurous travelers who wanted to explore abandoned tunnels and buildings. Some even claimed to have seen strange and unexplainable things while exploring the area.

Despite its eerie reputation, The Tunnel remains an important landmark for those traveling through Lake Mead. It serves as a reminder of the region's rich history and the sacrifices made by those who worked to protect it. Whether you're a history buff or an adventure seeker, The Tunnel is a must-visit location that will leave you with unforgettable memories and stories to share.

## **EVER GRANDE MOTEL**

Ever Grande Motel was once a popular stop for weary travelers on their way through the countryside. However, when the outbreak hit, the motel was quickly abandoned and left to decay. That was until the Civilian Defense Force, or CDF for short, took control of the area and repurposed the motel into a survivor settlement.

Now, the Ever Grande Motel is a bustling hub of activity, with survivors from all walks of life coming together to trade goods and share stories. The CDF keeps a watchful eye over the area, ensuring that everyone is safe and secure.

Despite its new purpose, the motel still retains its original charm. The rooms have been converted into living quarters, while the old lobby now serves as a small trade market. And of course, the motel's name still proudly hangs above the entrance, a reminder of what it once was.

Overall, the Ever Grande Motel is a testament to the resilience of humanity in the face of adversity. Though it may be an old and worn-down building, it remains a beacon of hope for those who call it home.

It's located near the Ever Grande Motel and provides sleeping quarters/kitchens for troops and a medical bay for injured soldiers. The Mechanic Yard has an extensive history of supporting the CDF, and it's been instrumental in helping defend the town against various threats over the years. Despite its small size, it's a testament to the resilience and determination of the CDF and the people of Boulder Cove. The Mechanic Yard is a symbol of hope and courage, and it plays a crucial role in keeping the town safe and secure.
