This Poseidon Energy gas station sits near the start of Nevada State Route 160, southwest of the South Vegas Ruins West Entrance and northeast of Chance's Map. It is the only Poseidon station in the Mojave with its own map marker. At some point the lot became a dumping ground, and the many waste barrels left behind make it heavily irradiated, so watch your Geiger counter and do not linger longer than you need to.
The building cannot be entered, and the only loot is in a garbage can and a highway patrol car out front. Fire geckos spawn on the empty ground to the northwest, joined by deathclaws at higher levels. A little to the south is a camp of old trailers held by Violet, a Fiend leader on the Three-Card Bounty list, along with her pack of Fiend hounds, including Violetta, whose brain is an option in Nothin' But a Hound Dog.
How to get there
Leave Red Rock Canyon by its eastern entrance and follow Nevada 159 east to the gas station near the South Vegas ruins.
