Mass Gravel & Sand

Mass Gravel & Sand is a location in the Commonwealth in 2287.

Background
This small quarry just north of Charlestown is a lookout point for raiders, and habitat for mole rats.

Layout
A small gravel operation consisting of two silos and a two-story watchtower with only the second floor being accessible. Inside, there is one raider, a weapons workbench and minor loot. Mole rats (possibly different variations) usually spawn here. Several wrecked cars are around the area and may explode during a firefight. The silo in the center of the area has a duffle bag hidden at the very top.

Notable loot
There is a suit of power armor in a locked security cage at a military checkpoint just a short walk due east via an Advanced computer terminal.

Related quests
Appropriation: When speaking with Evan Watson of the Institute Advanced Systems section, he will tell the Sole Survivor he is impressed with the Brotherhood of Steel's technology and that the Institute could learn a lot from it and asks for help in finding some blueprints.

Appearances
Mass Gravel & Sand appears only in Fallout 4.

Bugs
Companions such as Hancock may, when entering the upper floor of the tower, comment about the raider's actions even if the raider was not present when clearing the location.
