Ranger Station Charlie

 is a location in Fallout: New Vegas. This Ranger station has been charged with maintaining order on the road to Novac. The communications officer at this outpost is Ranger Stepinac.

Layout
Outside the ranger station you can see many mobile homes and cars piled up as fortifications, implying that the site used to be a pre-war trailer park. You can find some ammo, weapons and random items by searching through them.

Inside these improvised fortifications, there are stacked camping trailers that have lots of bedding in them. Occasionally, an NCR ranger will appear in the farthest trailer from the entrance during the night, and will sit in a chair overlooking the road to the left during the day. He is a named character, but has no speech dialogs if the player tries to talk to him. Also, a Prospector may be found resting there.

The main building is to the right as you walk through the entrance. If you go to or return to the site at Ranger Andy's request, the station's troops have all been slaughtered. There are two bodies on the floor in the first room, each with an armed frag mine hidden underneath. One of the two audio tapes (tape #2) is straight ahead from the entrance, on top of the three stacked metal boxes. The tape is from the Legion, claiming responsibility for the massacre at Ranger Station Charlie, and informing the listener that they took a live NCR female with them.

The room on the left (through the door; the room with multiple bunk beds) contains a trap: a tripwire running across the doorway is connected to a rigged shotgun under the bunk beds, which is pointed at two antique fire extinguishers positioned in front of an armed bottlecap mine that will detonate either with proximity or by the explosion from the fire extinguishers being hit by the rigged shotgun.

The room also contains various junk and two more dead NCR soldiers. The male corpse will have NCR Ranger patrol armor in poor condition, along with a random weapon, usually a pistol or revolver.

Under the bunk bed to the right as you enter this room (the one with the two cinder blocks under it) is a floor safe (locked, average) with ammo, caps, rad-x and stimpaks. Under the bed in the northeast corner is a locked footlocker, but it is empty.
