RELEASE: //42 Mexican Mountain Scene for MSFS on PC & Xbox
--
by Edson Soriano, Managing Director //42
Oh hi!
The //42 “Scene Team” have been busy at work with the newest addition to our collection of perfectly placed hubs in popular bush camping hot spots. For our next release, we provide you with a home base for bush flying in Green River, Utah; welcome to Mexican Mountain (42MX)! This scene was originally released to owners of the FreedomFox / Fox2 Complete Pack; however, we realize not everyone out there is a Kitfox fan, so this is an unbundled release!
Scenes have a small footprint vs. complete sceneries that cover a larger area. They are also perfect places to play with //42 Campout as they were designed with plenty of plane camping space.
Expect challenging strips with immaculate vibes; whether it feels remote or cozy will depend on each scene. Bushplane Campout (42BC) and Mexican Mountain (42MX) are built to serve as hubs for available smaller campouts that will surround them soon. These hubs offer ample parking areas for multiplayer adventures.
If you own FreedomFox / Fox2 Complete Pack, you already own this scene.
42MX Mexican Mountain
We were lucky enough to work with real bush pilots in the region and were provided with amazing drone footage for reference material in constructing this strip. Located in Green River, Utah, the region features brightly colored cliffs, buttes, ridges, alcoves, and pinnacles that dominate the landscape, with elevations ranging from 4,700 feet in the southeast to 6,900 feet on Mexican Mountain. In comparison to many other mountains, Mexican Mountain truly is…out there; the views are tremendous, there are plenty of places to practice STOL landings nearby, and you’re a short hop away from Moab.
HIGHLIGHTS
- Runway: ~1800 ft long x 40 ft wide dirt runway. Slopes uphill slightly to the west.
- Approach Considerations: Tall trees on both sides of the runway present a hazard when landing to the east. Typically land to the west and depart to the east. Caution RC plane in the vicinity.

- Windsock: Yes. Located east of the runway, next to the information sign.
