The Smithville Dam is a map located in Michigan region included in SnowRunner. It serves as the central hub for most of the region's contracts as it connects to all other maps.
Overview[]
Smithville Dam is the 2nd map in Michigan and 2nd map overall. It is connected to every map in the region and will give players a challenge in comparison with Black River.
Like Black River, Smithville Dam's main road is mostly comprised on asphalt and dirt with very few segments of mud outside of the main path. The primary road reaches Drummond Island and a gateway to Island Lake is able to be reached but has many roads with deep mud and water blocking the path and should not be faced without proper upgrades.
Smithville Dam has 2 major obstacles blocking the main road to Drummond Island. A rockslide near the garage and a destroyed bridge near Warehouse by the dam. Both can be fixed fairly quickly and will provide players with a easy to navigate route.
Like Black River the main focus of this map is the construction of an oil drill site. This drilling site however has more mud required to face to reach it making some of the starting trucks less desirable unless their upgrades have been located. Another main focus is delivering various supplies to locations like the farm, quarry, and logistics base.
The main way to cross the massive river on this map is simply by using the dam. it is entirely paved making the crossing extremely easy. The eastern portion of the map is uneven terrain with narrow roads unfriendly for large trucks. The eastern portion also has few small paths and 1 shallow section of the river to drive on to reach the Island Lake gateway.
Smithville Dam has 3 available vehicles that the player can add to their fleet. The International Transtar 4070A, White Western Star 4964, and a 2nd Chevrolet CK1500. The White western star requires a task before it is given to the player and requires a truck of equal size and power to pull the decrepit machine from its resting place and to its new home at the garage.
