This article is about the location. For the mod that introduced it, see everred.

Mt. Everred is a fictional mountain located somewhere in the upper hemisphere[citation needed]. The mountain is characterized by its twin peaks, each with a unique climbing trail.

Areas
Evergreen Foothills

Mt. Everred is surrounded by an expanse of grassy slopes, known as the Evergreen Foothills. While these are technically not part of the mountain itself, anyone attempting the climb must cross them to reach it. This is the starting location in both Everred and Foreverred, with both mods presenting the player with the first Gem here.

Forgotten Cliffside

The Forgotten Cliffside makes up the bottom half of Mt. Everred, and is notable for its purple rock and sharp cliff faces. The terrain here is treacherous, featuring numerous overhangs and drop-offs.

At the base of the mountain is a Memorial:

-- mount everred --

this memorial to those

who skipped the gem

This is a hint to both mods' alternate routes and references their high difficulty.

Ancient Trench

The Ancient Trench is located between the two peaks of the mountain, dividing Everred Peaks and the Everred Spire. It is not shown on the mod's title screen art, and is likely not visible from a distance. This location was added in Foreverred to house the second gem. In the original mod, the gem was located at the base of the Everred Peaks area instead.

Everred Peaks

The lower summit is comprised of an area known as the Everred Peaks. It features unique plant life and a striking red color palette when compared to the lower regions. Starting just below the summit, the red rocks are replaced by pink stone.

In Everred, the gem is located within a chest at the bottom of this area. It was moved to the Ancient Trench in the remake.

This peak's summit features a red flag.

Everred Spire

The upper summit is much thinner and taller than the Peaks, and is comprised of several smaller sub-areas. The bottom third of the Spire is of a similar elevation as the Peaks, and features similar flora and coloration.

The middle third of the spire is located at the cloud layer, and is surrounded by a thick fog. Otherwise, it is quite similar to the bottom layer in regards to color and flora.

The top third of the spire reaches above the clouds, and features pink-colored rock.

At the base of the Spire is a memorial:

-- everred spire --

turn back now lest you

fall like those before

This implies that in the past people have perished on the Spire climb, and the trail the player is on was closed due to dangerous terrain. It is likely intended as a warning to both in-universe climbers and players, as the climb up the Spire is extremely difficult.

This peak's summit was largely featureless in the original mod, but a trans flag was added to the location in the remake.

Trivia

The name "Mt. Everred" is a portmanteau of "mt. Everest" and "red".
