Bannister Crater

The  is an unmarked location in Fallout 3, near the VAPL-58 Power Station.

The area has three small irradiated craters and a much larger crater with an entry trail which is not as irradiated. The larger crater, however, has three piles of toxic waste barrels, concentrating the rads into those areas, and an overturned military truck inside it with a dead alien next to it.

Enemies
Enclave personnel occupy this space and are conducting tests on the crater or gathering intel on it (read terminal there for more intel) And since this location is in the midst of the wasteland and close to the Talon Company occupied Fort Bannister all hell can break loose at any time the list of possible enemies include:
 * Enclave Soldier
 * Radscorpion
 * Super Mutant
 * Talon Company Merc

Notable loot

 * A number of Alien Power Cells underneath an overturned truck.
 * 6 Bottlecaps
 * A packet of RadAway.
