Seattle: Orchard Trailer Park
Orchard Trailer Park [Puyallup]

Orchard Trailer Park is a run-down nasty slum by all appearances, but deep inside this park is much more than Trailer Trash Barbie ever bargained for, chummers. The Seattle Independence Movement maintains a substantial armory and a number of safe houses here. The movement uses this warren of winding and crowded trailers to rest up and plan their operations in Seattle.
> Lone Star rates this place a blanket ‘Z.’ If they send anyone inside for any reason, they usually pack at least three Mobmasters and air support. The SIM boys make any incursion into this park a real experience — it’s not unusual to find a hardened bunker or two with anti-tank missiles and PACs on hard points. The Feds are forever trying to get someone on the inside of this place, but as of yet have had little luck.

> The Movement is financed by a lot of corporations indirectly — the Big Ten would love to have Seattle in their pockets like they have New York. A lot of Seattle’s prominent citizens fund the movement as well. One corporation that definitely isn’t funding the Movement is Ares Macrotechnology. Ares has sponsored several runs specifically targeted at the Movement’s leaders. The recent influx of military-grade heavy weapons has made these runs especially dangerous of late.

> A walk through this park is like a step into Hell. Raw sewage and trash make that walk a sweet one; add in the armed camp mentality and the occasional firefight, and you begin to get the scene. The city has allowed services to lapse or just outright cancelled them. Fire crews have been directed to not respond to fires in the park unless the fire threatens to spread outside of it. Electricity and other utilities have been cut. The Movement has managed to set up or pirate some of these services, but a number of local businesses have also ignored the government’s orders and continue to provide services to people inside the park.
