Crescent Canyon East is the eastern entrance to the same gully as Crescent Canyon West, found south of the Mojave Drive-in. A train hangs over the canyon from the roadway above, with some of its cars resting on the canyon floor, which makes the spot easy to recognize. The ground is irradiated at about 4 rads per second, and golden geckos roam the length of the canyon, so it is not a safe shortcut for a fresh character.
The loot is the reason to come. An Advanced Radiation Suit waits in a marked case roughly halfway through the canyon near an overturned truck, and an armor case can hold combat armor or a combat helmet. A Hollowed-Out Rock sits at the bottom of the hill to the right at the east end. Enter from this side and you can walk the whole crescent, coming out near Morning Star Cavern in the west.
How to get there
From the Mojave Drive-in, head south toward the train cars hanging over the canyon.
Notable loot
- Advanced Radiation Suit (marked case near the overturned truck, mid-canyon)
- Combat armor or combat helmet (armor case)
- Hollowed-Out Rock (bottom of the hill at the east end)
Tips
- Bring Rad-X and RadAway before heading in.
- Fight golden geckos from the canyon mouth so they come to you a few at a time.
