The Devil's Throat

The Devil's Throat is a location in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281. It is situated east of Bloodborne cave.

Layout
The Devil's Throat is a giant radioactive crater in the northeastern Mojave Desert. There are pools of contaminated water at the bottom of the crater, and a wrecked truck in the center with scattered toxic waste barrels nearby. A dead super mutant lies at the rear of the truck. The area is inhabited by centaurs, including a giant evolved centaur. They respawn after three in-game days when killed.

Notable loot

 * Reinforced combat armor and a unique party hat - Found on a dead prospector in the truck trailer.
 * The unique minigun, CZ57 Avenger - Also in the trailer, lying next to the dead prospector.

Appearances
The Devil's Throat appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.

Behind the scenes
Devil's Throat is based on the real world Devil's Throat sinkhole at Gold Butte National Monument in Clark County, Nevada. The real world Devil's Throat is located east of the in-game location, on the other side of Lake Mead. A half-finished crater exists in the approximate location of the real version in-game, outside the playable area.

Bugs

 * Upon returning to this location, the dead super mutant may appear alive and hostile, but with very few hit points. He will respawn after several in-game days, either alive or dead.
 * When visiting this place for the first time, neither the super mutant nor the dead prospector will be there. However, the CZ57 Avenger will still be in the correct spot. Saving and reloading or returning later may fix this.
