Rock Creek Caverns

The Rock Creek caverns are a location in Fallout 3. The caverns compose of a large disconnected metro tunnel/cavern that is inhabited by mirelurks, mirelurk hunters, and/or mirelurk kings, depending on level. The caverns consist of a single interior chamber.

Exterior
The entrance to Rock Creek caverns is a sewer grate at the bottom of a crater that has exposed the sewer system, just to the north-west of the National Guard depot. When coming from the direction of the National Guard depot, there is a guaranteed encounter with two raiders and two super mutants fighting it out with each other. Some areas within the caverns are moderately radioactive.
