Located about 10 miles north of the mountain, a broad, slow-moving river travels its arrow-straight course through the Windy Gorge, which extends for countless miles from the sea, east. On both sides of the river rise steep, fir-covered slopes that are met by ragged basalt cliffs. Every few miles a waterfall roars over the cliffs from dozens and hundreds of feet up and transforms into a stream that dances eagerly downhill to join the larger river. The spectacular view from atop the cliffs is perhaps worth braving the perpetual gusts. There is little food to eat here, plenty of water, and many rodents such as chipmunks and rabbits, which attract smaller predators such as bobcats and foxes. The large deer population in this area, however, attracts a few mountain lions, which are far more dangerous.

The Oldwood Forest–commonly just "Oldwood"–is a vast old growth forest that stretches from the far north to the burned forest and from the high desert to the basin. The forest is so old that huge logs of petrified wood can sometimes be found in it. The tallest trees here are straight Douglas firs, reaching 100 feet into the air and higher. Huckleberry trees grow at certain altitudes, yielding their fruit in the summer when and the soft ground is covered in oxalis. Many animals make this forest their home: deer, raccoons, ravens, owls, and dangerous predators such as bears, wolverines and wolves. Oldwood is a dangerous, although wondrous, place that one is more likely to get lost in than to visit for pleasure.

Further east than all the rest of the notable places, the Sagebrush Hills are a vast, rocky stretch of high desert covered in blue-gray sagebrush and other sages and dry grasses. The sagebrush is toxic, so when wandering here starvation is a threat. One must be careful when browsing the edible grasses not to pick some of the poisonous plants. Throughout the hills there are numerous watering holes where other animals, such as pronghorn antelope, gather. Predators do not usually frequent the area but it is not impossible to be attacked bya few wolves.
