Ash Heap

The Ash Heap is one of the six regions of Appalachia in 2102.

Background
The Ash Heap was formerly home to industrial sites such as mines and a trainyard that primarily revolved around mineral extraction. The area centers around the excavated mining site of Mount Blair, and can be identified by the layer of soot and ash from unchecked coal mine fires covering the region.

Appearances
The Ash Heap appears only in Fallout 76.

Behind the scenes
The Ash Heap seems to be made to resemble—shape and culturally— McDowell County, WV. McDowell county had once been the most prominent coal-producing county in the state until a decline in the mid-90s.
