Coyote Bluff is a settlement in the northwestern Mojave Wasteland.

Background
The settlement began in 2254 when the occupants of Vault 19 left the vault. There were many reason for this, but among the top reasons where the mistrust of the occupants and the dangerous sulfuric fumes leaking in from the caves below. Because the Reds and the Blues didn't trust each other, they headed their own ways; the Reds ventured west and formed Coyote Bluff and the Blues ventured off south, but were never hear from again. Coyote Bluff remained off the grid for about 20 years with essentially no one besides the occasional prospector or caravan knowing they even existed.

However, in 2275, a band of raiders rumored to be Vipers assaulted the town. They killed much of the population as well as the towns livestock. The gang also kidnapped a few of the townsfolk, keeping them likely as slaves. Soon after the attack ceased, a caravan from Alamosa Trading Company came across the ruined town and stopped there. The caravan helped with treating injuries, feeding the victims and searching for more survivors.

Since the mayor, Winston Black, had been killed in the attack, the town nominated the caravans medic, Theodore "Texas" Calhoun, to be mayor, but he declined, and suggested the caravan driver, Bill Ackerman for mayor. Bill liked this idea and accepted. The attack could have been prevented had Coyote Bluff had a proper sheriff, so Texas was made sheriff. He's still sheriff in 2281 and shows no sign of stepping down any time soon.

Layout
Coyote Bluff is directly west of Vault 19 and west-southwest of Spring Mt. Ranch State Park. The town is at the end of a road that offshoots from I-15. There only five intact buildings remain after the raid, but there used to be seven. The two that burned down were never rebuilt due to lack of supplies.

Kate's Supply
Kate's Supply is Coyote Bluff's general store where you can by an assortment of firearms, armor or clothing, or miscellaneous junk items. The store is directly on the right as you come into town.

Master's Bar and Grill
Master's Bar and Grill is where the residents of Coyote Bluff come to drink, get a meal and generally have a good time. Cole Masters serves drinks and Derrick Payne makes the meals. It's next to Kate's Supply, further into town.

Coyote Bluff clinic
The Coyote Bluff clinic is where residents or anyone passing by can get patched up if they’ve been hurt. The clinic is across from Kate’s Supply. It is easily discernible by the neon "CLINIC" sign hanging outside the door.

Town Hall
The Coyote Bluff town hall is where residents talk about pressing matters. However, due to the lack of space in town, many of the residents live here. The town hall rests at the end of the road, furthest into the settlement.

Notable loot

 * A Tales of a Junktown Jerky Vendor in the backroom of Kate's Supply.
 * Two Stealth Boys in a dumpster behind the town hall.
 * A hunting shotgun behind the counter in Master's Bar and Grill.
 * Three doctor's bags and 12 stimpaks lying around the clinic.
