This is a location in fiction by GMRE and New and Improved Medici.
Imagine an area with tall snow-covered mountains, similar to Berawan Besar Mountains and most of Insula Striate. Now try to imagine an old castle that someone has converted into a high-end vacation resort.
Description[]
This is something that would have worked well in Just Cause 3 as an abandoned resort, but it could also work well as a sidemission location for any future game.
This is how you get here, unless you're Rico, or unless you can afford a helicopter.
The castle would be well above the snowline. Examples of real castles on mountains during winter. Imagine the Kem Gunung Dataran Tinggi base, but built as an old castle and converted to a resort. The modern resort conversion would include items like helicopter landing pads and some building expansions with glass walls that reveal expensively maintained tropical vegetation in a big greenhouse. Also, hot tubs outside. Much of the castle still looks old and even has Old-timy cannons and Small old-timy cannons at the battlements. This is actually the only location that has as many of them.
In game there could often be blizzards to make the whole region even less approachable. All parts of the mountains in the area that would not be too steep would be covered with a dense forest. The only non-Rico ways to get there would be by helicopter, or by cable cars.
Some castle/resort areas could be connected this way.

This could be in the neighbourhood.
Depending on the plot needs for the game, the location could be either abandoned, as would be the case in JC3 (due to "the burning of the north"), or it could be populated by civilians. In any case it would be the location for some mission.
Vehicles[]
This location holds several unique and very rare vehicles:
- Cable cars.
- Civilian helicopters.
- On landing pads.
- In a garage near the landing pad, so as to be protected from the blizzards.
- Reichsmobile Wundertraktor Ausf.G hidden inside the building.
- Garret Venturer hidden inside the building.
- Scando 700 Sedan (sleeper) in some supply hangar.
- 2 x Hurst Deluxe Cruiser in a garage.
- Special custom MG, in the armory.
- Tuk-Tuk Vintage MG, in the armory.
- Mechanica Potestas Firmitudo Carruca, in a hidden chamber.
Trivia[]
- In the Just Cause Universe it would be a spiritual successor to locations like:
- El Volcan - Remote unique location on a mountain.
- Gunung Hotel Ski Resort - By purpose, a similar location in similar climate.
- Mile High Club - Remote unique location, similarly exclusive and difficult to approach.
