One of the largest Hellholes exists far out in the New Mexico deserts. The United States government built a repository deep under the sands of Yucca Mountain, in order to store transuranic radioactive waste from reactors and tests. Nobody lives for miles outside the repository, and the cavern goes for miles, deep within the mountain.

At its heart rests long-term storage containers for the waste.

At that very point, across the Gauntlet, is a Hellhole like few others. At its level of isolation, the monsters within breed without concern. In places, they’re birthed faster than they can eat, so the monsters pile up, devouring one another and struggling for every possible inch of the realm.

Nearby Uktena know damn well this Hellhole exists, but they also know the risks of trying to destroy it. The best-case scenario would be a full annihilation of all Garou involved. The more likely outcome would look more like the corruption of the White Howlers on a smaller scale.

This is a point of constant frustration for the Uktena, as Yucca Mountain was once a place of great power. Just centuries ago, it boasted a near nonexistent Gauntlet, and

led directly to a Glen. This story is not unique. Similar lands in Belgium, Canada, China, France, Japan, Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, and a few other nations house such repositories. All are built far from human civilization. All quickly become host to Hellholes.
