Tioga Valley

This course is one of the primary maps in ATV 2 and is available for all game modes. It takes place somewhere in a huge desert, which is full of sand, dirt tracks, hills to ramp on, and lots and lots of cactuses. In Tioga Valley there are several signs of civilization, but they are not houses like on Prospect Springs. There's a huge park full of deserted trailers and tents, which serves as the short race track for this level. In the stunt section for this course, where you start out in freestyle, there is a crashed, red miniplane. Several electric wires hang over a valley and if you hit them while you jump you'll get shocked and crash (which is actually pretty funny.) If you wander around the desert you'll notice that there are old rusty, brown trucks scattered around the map. It's probably some sort of reference to some Rainbow employee who died (like teddybears in Call of Duty.) Another strange thing about this large desert is that there are three old castles hidden in this track. They appear to be some sort of old, army watch tower but it's significance is unknown. Two of them are pretty easy to find and you'll most likely encounter them while speeding along the dirt path. The third; however, is pretty tricky to find. If you go west from the camp, past the two yellow trailers and up the hill, you'll see several large mountains. One has a little grass on it and at the top is the third castle. Go north from the castle and you'll see an abandoned blue tent with a fire that for some reason is away from the other tents in the camp. Then go west from there and you'll enter an old, abandoned town. This little town is hidden in a valley and made up of several old buildings and furnaces. It appeared to have been some old factory. A brown truck can be found here. If you go south to leave the town and then turn around again, you'll find that one of the houses is made into a ramp. Gain momentum and race up the house and jump onto the second, larger building. Then speed up the ramp and sail over the smoke furnace. Try to do a stunt and land without crashing. (It's pretty tricky but I finally managed to pull it off.)
