Description
The Northeastern Mushroom Forest is the smallest of the two Mushroom Forests. It is found next to, and nearly underneath the front of the Aurora.
It is densely packed with Tree Mushrooms and features occasional cliffs that lead down to the Bulb Zone. Bonesharks aren't found dwelling here, so this forest is typically safer than the Northwestern Mushroom Forest, but however, Mesmers are present and a Reaper Leviathan that can wonder away from the Crash Zone may travel into this biome. An entrance to the largest Mushroom Forest Caves is located embedded into a cliff. This forest is packed with resources, especially Lithium. On its northern side, the Mountains and Kelp Forest can be found, with its east side leading to the Grassy Plateaus.
