====Bone County====
====Bone County====
[[Bone County]] is one of the most important areas of the game, other than the major cities themselves, containing many areas and missions needed for continuation; a large amount of easter eggs are also located within it. The county's two most prominent features include a secret military base named "[[Area 69]]" (based on Area 51) located at its center, as well as the [[Verdant Meadows]] Aircraft Graveyard, directly north of Area 69. Bone County boasts an oil field (Octane Springs), a quarry, and several unique natural features such as mesas.

The county is bordered in the west by the [[Sherman Reservoir]] and [[Sherman Dam|Dam]] (based on the Hoover Dam) as well as Tierra Robada county. Las Venturas is located to its east, and Red County to its south. The county as a whole is obviously based on rural portions for the American state of Nevada, because it has a similar climate, terrain and topography.

[[Area 69]] is a restricted, fenced-in military base, patterned after Area 51 and named for the 69 sex position. The base houses various clandestine government projects, including the "[[Black Project]]" [[jetpack]]. It may possibly house some projects involving UFOs and/or extraterrestrial life, as suggested by the presence of the nearby "[[Lil' Probe Inn]]" (a reference to the Lil' Ale Inn), dialog on the base's PA system during the "Black Project" mission, and by dialog on [[Marvin Trill|Marvin Trill's]] in-game radio show.

[[Fort Carson]] is the largest town in Bone County, and also its state capital, as indicated by the small red building in the main street, having been significantly undeveloped as of 1992. It is based on the real life town of Rachel, Nevada, which is the closest habitation to Area 51. North of the town is Area 69, as well as the smaller town of [[Las Payasadas]]. It has a small hospital and a sheriff's office. There is also an Ammu-Nation just outside of town. The town is located west of [[Las Venturas]]. A small [[Cropduster|cropduster]] is known to appear next to one of the houses near here and it is flyable.

The [[Lil' Probe Inn]], a fictional bar/motel, is located north from Fort Carson. The Lil' Probe Inn is actually a parody of the Little A'le Inn in Rachel; the interior of the Probe Inn matches the interior of the real life Little A'le Inn. Down the road from the Probe Inn is [[Area 69]].

The Big Ear, a large satellite dish located west of Area 69, is claimed by the official ''San Andreas'' website to emit radiation that resulted in birth defects in the local populace, in which its newborns have no ears. Fort Carson is also seen in ''[[The Introduction]]''. [[Ken Rosenberg]] was in rehab in the town's hospital.
