Mount Chiliad in GTA III Era
Mount Chiliad is a half kilometer tall mountain and district located in Whetstone, San Andreas. It is reportedly based upon the real-life Mount Diablo in Contra Costa County, California. Immediately to the north is the bustling city of San Fierro, while just to the south, at the mountain's base, is the small town of Angel Pine. Races are held here on Mountain Bikes in the daytime starting from the mountain's peak toward the mountain's base. As with many countryside areas, Mount Chiliad has been reported to contain myths such as leatherface and bigfoot. Screaming has been said to be heard at night.
