Overview
Due east of Dutch’s Island, this corner of the Henbane River Region is mostly lush grassland and low hills. The shores of Silver Lake are to the northeast (along with the wayward Tanami Island), and there is a good system of road and rail lines to the other regions. Venture farther inland to spot greater signs of cult activity. Don’t forget to visit Miss Mable on the hill to the east to secure her big cat for your roster. Finally, note the lack of cult outposts; your subregion map is found in the Deep Water Treatment Plant, the largest facility in this area.

Primary Locations (12)
[1] Tanami Residence
Ammo (Plenty); Barrel, Gas Canister, Propane Tank (Explosive); Climbing Spots; Collectible (Whiskey Cask; Whitetail Mountains #3); Fishing Location; Item of Note (Documents; Magazine: Perk x3; Tanami Bunker Keycard); Items ($, Safe); Lock and Key; Prepper Stash; Shop (Boatshed); Underground; Vehicle (Boat); Vista; Zip Lines
Mission: Prepper Stash—Shipwreck
This small, wooded island is usually deserted, though cultists have immolated some civilians close to the cabin. The cabin is inaccessible, but the dredger in the dock waters leads to an underwater cave tunnel and access to the bunker, where a Prepper Stash is located. Use the keycard (found in the bunker) to exit the bunker from the inside. Look due east from the dock to spot Secondary Location: Red Wooden Cross (west of Tanami Island), over in Whitetail Mountains. This reveals clues to the location of a Whiskey Cask inside the dredger in the dock (the barrel counts toward the Whitetail Mountains total).
[2] Vasquez Residence
Ammo (Few), Barrel and Propane Tank (Explosive), Collectible (Comic Book: Vietnam), Enemies (Cultist), Fishing Location, Hostage (Liberate), Item of Note (Magazine: Perk; Documents), Vehicle (Boat, Car/Truck), Zip Lines
Just east of Dutch’s Island is a riverside cabin and outbuildings in a partly wooded area. Expect a light enemy presence here. Then check inside for some reading materials.

Ammo (Few), Character of Note (Xander Flynn), Climbing Spots, Enemies (Cultist), Hostage (Liberate), Far Cry Arcade (Editor), Gas Canister and Propane Tank (Explosive), Item of Note (Documents), Items ($), Warning! Mounted MG!
Mission: Cult Outpost—Drubman Marina (Alternate Start)
This roadside watering hole is devoid of customers and usually has a small cult squad to rough up the locals. It is also a possible place to find Xander Flynn, the So-Cal boy toy of Adelaide Drubman, and acquire a hint to liberate Cult Outpost: Drubman Marina (if you haven’t liberated it first). Otherwise, he’s at the marina.
[4] Can of Worms Fishing Store
Ammo (Few), Character of Note (Sherri Woodhouse), Climbing Spots, Far Cry Arcade (Poster), Fishing Spot, Gas Canister and Propane Tank (Explosive), Item of Note (Documents), Items ($), Shop (Boatshed), Vehicle (Boat), Vista, Zip Lines
Mission: Side—Whiskey River
On Silver Lake’s southern shore is a bait shop owned by Sherri Woodhouse. Speak to her about her family’s hidden Whiskey Casks. You can easily start this mission by visiting Secondary Locations #4 and #5 and acquiring barrels from there.

Alarm!; Zip Lines
Mission: Story—Clean Water Act
When you’re close to this large plant, you receive a radio message from Virgil Minkler at Hope County Jail; liberating this location completes the mission (which is listed there, where you actually meet the mayor). Treat this as a cult outpost in terms of threats and stealth tactics. Grab the subregion map on the blue-tarp container outside the southern pump room.
[6] Misty River Gas
Ammo (Plenty); Barrels, Gas Canister, Propane Tank (Explosive); Climbing Spots; Enemies (Cultist); Far Cry Arcade (Editor); Item of Note (Documents); Shop (Garage, Helicopter); Vehicle (Car/Truck, Helicopter, Quad); Warning! Mounted MG!; Zip Line
Though this location is teeming with foes during Adelaide Drubman’s mission, it is otherwise relatively peaceful. Come here to gather ammo and work on your vehicles.
[7] McCoy Cabin
Ammo (Haul!); Barrels, Gas Canister, Propane Tank (Explosive); Collectible (Vietnam Lighter); Enemies (Cultist); Item of Note (Documents); Underground
Cultists have taken over a small distillery and cabin. Inside, the cabin is ransacked. Check the bunker by the cabin, half hidden by green tarp. Down below is an ammo stash and Vietnam Lighter.
[8] Peaches Taxidermy
Ammo (Few), Character of Note (Miss Mable, Peaches), Collectible (Comic Book: Zombie), Far Cry Arcade (Poster), Fangs for Hire (Peaches), Item of Note (Documents), Items (Safe), Vehicle (Car/Truck)
Mission: Story—Here Kitty, Kitty
Specialist: Peaches (Assassin)
A vicious, antisocial cougar (and her big cat) has a taxidermy place up on this wooded hill. Speak to her about retrieving her cat Peaches, after which you can command the cat on your own excursions. Also check the TV cabinet in Mable’s cabin for a comic book.
[9] Barlow Residence
Ammo (Few), Enemies (Cultist), Gas Canister and Propane Tank (Explosive)

[11] Eden’s Gate Outreach Center
Ammo (Few), Enemies (Cultist), Far Cry Arcade (Editor), Fishing Location, Item of Note (Documents), Items ($), Propane Tank (Large: Explosive), Vehicle (Car/Truck, Plane)

[12] The Pillars of Eden
Ammo (Few), Bliss (Barrels, Effect), Enemies (Cultist), Hostage (Liberate), Landmark, Vista, Zip Lines
On the western foot of Angel’s Peak, at the start of the cult pilgrimage to Joseph’s Word statue, is a rock wall where sacrifices take place. Rescue the civilian here, then destroy the shrine above. Or clear this area from above.

Climbing Spots, Grapple Spots, Landmark
The large rail bridge crosses the grassy banks of Henbane River here. Note there’s a Prepper Stash in the girders above you, but it’s accessed from Holland Valley (Prepper Stash Mission: Swingers), unless you jump from a passing helicopter piloted by an ally.
