El Dorado Dry Lake

The  is a vast expanse of sand and cracked earth in the Mojave Wasteland. Inspiring the same awe as the blasts that wrecked the earth. Nature's own forces of destruction work away at rocks, asphalt and peeling iron, while Fire Ants roam with impunity from shelter to shelter.

Layout
Located a short distance from Novac, it's located off of Highway 95, past the Gibson Scrapyard and HELIOS One, the latter which rests on the coast of the lake bed. Here the player encounters the occasional caravan, or wandering mercenary. Always vigilant, the Lonesome Drifter makes his camp just below the Sunset Sarsaparilla billboard north of the El Dorado Gas & Service.

It is South-east of Vault 11 and there is a truck in the dried up lake as well. Many Barrel Cactus Fruit and Jalapeño pepper plants are available to the dedicated component harvester.
