As I often do when Yanov Station, I like to go to Zulu's Tower and sneak a peek around the corner, being shielded by bushes and the building. This lets me see along the roads and what's going on at the northern pond which is usually where you hear gunfire while inside Yanov Station. This video starts with me seeing a Bandit squad approaching the area from the east and they have that distinct walk of detecting weapons on the ground to recover. I did not see the dead Dutyers until they were right on top of them. When I got there, I saw rodents who are usually very deadly to NPCs and hard for them to kill at their feet. There was enough loot there requiring me to return to dump and sell after such a short trip.

Leaving again, I go east and down to the Quarry where I find a Bandit squad just defeated a Loner squad. More loot and back to Yanov Station which was good timing as an Emission hit while I was there. After it was over, I go south following the train tracks until I detour west passing by the Mobile Lab and up the hill to the Volkhov road where I come face to face with three Zombies and take damage in killing them. I then go east coming across a mutant swarm in the grove by the tent and a two-man squad of Loners who I help fight them.

I find the Parking Lot empty and then go up the road to the Checkpoint. It is also empty so I go to the bluff looking down to the north and find Zombies south of the Anomalous Grove, along with some discarded loot from earlier. With all the recent Zombie loot, it was time to go back to Yanov Station. Leaving again I go west to the small pond north of the Mobile Lab where I meet two Dutyers hunting mutants. We fast travel to where I had just been, south of the Anomalous Grove, but despite telling me they wanted to go there, they immediately leave, and I follow them westward.

We separate just south of the Mobile Lab, and they go north while I turn to look at Volkhov. I see two Bandits far to the south from the road and then a single Loner walking along the train tracks going north. At first, I fear the Bandits will shoot him in the back but before I could do anything, the Bandits are killed by Snorks. I keep going south and see two Bandits spawn before my eyes on the opposite side of the road where the Monolith are hidden in their camp. I stop by the Container yard and all is well. I leave again going east and I find more mutants and two Bandits hiding in the train tunnel.

From there I kill a few mutants at the Helicopter Pad, find no activity at the Ventilation Complex, the Checkpoint or back at the same location the Dutyers fast traveled to much earlier. With the sun going down and having a long journey, I made my way back to Yanov Station.
