No Birch Sapling in Coastal Highway

[soiledgutchies]

So I have been using the Whitesberry maps for reference and now that I am in the Coastal Highway, I need to find more Birch Saplings for Arrows. I have found the Maple but I can't find any Birch. Is this a bug, a glitch or does this happen in some reagions. I did well in other reagions and the maps worked but not here. Hoping for some insight.

Took a quick look, and if we're talking about the same Whitesberry, all of those maps are two years old. A lot has changed since then, including spawns.

That being said, I recall being able to find some birch in my last run when I spent some time in CH, but I can't remember exactly where. If you wander the region above the highway, near the abandoned lookout, you might find some.

There are two logging roads behind the Quonset garage. One of them is closer to the Desolation Point exit, and the other is closer to the Pleasant Valley exit. The latter one is the one you'll want.

As you climb it's slope, you'll run into a cave on the side of the mountain. It may or may not be occupied by a bear. Approaching this cave head on, if you turn LEFT at the fork in the road, you should come across a small grove of 3-5 birch saplings.

Also, at the farthest end of the highway on the side of the area where Jackrabbit Island is, there is a stream which falls down from the mountain above and goes underneath a highway bridge. If you follow this stream, you'll eventually come across Bear Creek Campground. In my experience, there has usually been some birch saplings in this area as well.

This has been my experience. Your mileage may vary.

They are still just random spawns. Sometimes there aren't any. You should get maybe two locations though

Possible locations - not always guaranteed spawn:
Hill above road after bridge over Bear Creek.
Above bridge, right side of Bear Creek, in front bear cave.
Small isle between JackRabbit's and Fishing Village.
Area above the rope behind Quonset.
Near tunnel for Crumbled Highway, in the coastal line right of road.

Opera Resume: the places marked in Whiteberry map still valid, just randomly.
