Deathclaw Promontory

 is an unmarked location in the Mojave Wasteland. Located on the east bank of the Colorado River, directly east of the Lucky Jim Mine and the Cliffside Prospector Camp.

Layout
It is a rough, uneven area over a cliff, with a labyrinth of hills, filled with a large number of various types of deathclaws. Note: The number of deathclaws vary with the player's level. If you are a very high level, at or close to the level cap, then the number of deathclaws can range from 12-14.

It should be noted that broc flowers and xander root grow extensively in this area.

Notable loot

 * A Tri-beam laser rifle next to the body of the dead prospector.
 * A non-faction T-51b power armor found on a dead prospector.
 * Remnants power armor found on a dead prospector.
 * Multiplas rifle found between the dead prospectors.
 * Deathclaw eggs can be found at the southern end against a cliff. Up to eight additional eggs might be looted off killed Deathclaws.

Appearances
appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * It is possible for an 'invincible' Deathclaw to spawn here. Even when it has lost all HP it still lives and cannot be killed.
 * Using Archimedes II in this area can result in the red targeting lines randomly triangulating all around the area (orbital laser will not discharge either). This was not fixed by saving/reloading. However, upon fast traveling to the prospector's shack across the river, the orbital laser did discharge, scoring a direct hit on the player, causing serious damage. After several save/loads, the targeting laser glitch remains present whenever this area is visited.
 * There is a bug associated with there being no dead bodies to loot. To fix, either save and re-load, or the bodies sometimes spawn if you wander around the promontory or fast travel away and revisit it.
 * If saving and reloading does not work, try restarting the console.
 * Getting the Remnants power helmet from Silver Peak Mine before going to Deathclaw promontory solved above problem. It's a good idea to take the Remnants power helmet with you when you head to the deathclaw promontory, or when returning if you encounter this glitch.
 * The deathclaws and prospectors might not spawn at all.
 * The 3 Deathclaw eggs at the southern nest will start to sink into the ground as you approach and you won't be able to pick them up.
 * If you place a pulse mine on a dead prospector then shoot it from a distance it will sometimes make the body disappear and it wont come back with any number of loads.
 * When engaging Deathclaws they seem to Freeze in place and not move even when killed they stay in the same position.
 * Sometimes when loading a save, the prospector bodies will not appear, despite appearing before. This bug may also follow you to previous saves as well. Restarting your Xbox corrects this.
 * Deathclaws can rarely follow you into the water. They do not swim, they only run on the bottom.
 * The Deathclaws simply run away when you are in the water, making this an easy way to shoot at a few of them and then retreat before being hit by their claws, doing this multiple times usually results in you killing the first few without being scratched.
 * The one two above about deathclaws running off into the water may aslo be experienced on the xbox, i was playing then it went for me when i wa sin the water then ran off.
