Notes

• A very tough area in Playthrough 2.5, it is very common to see two badass skags or bandits appearing together here, even in single player.
• Although thought to be unreachable, the bandit bridge next to the first bandit camp can be reached, by jumping on the various metal steps, and then grenade jumping over a large gap to get on top. The top has no loot, although if a bandit died on top of the bridge, their weapons will most likely be still up there. The bridge also serves as an excellent sniping spot.
• To save ammo and watch a little battle, agro all the skags in the first gully and bring them to the bandit camp. Most skags can shred the camp to pieces, but Psychos can easily remove the skags.
