It might sound like a home owners associated neighborhood, but Windy Heights (West) is a dangerous place to camp out at. If Mount Everest wasn’t always covered in snow, Windy Heights (West) might be close to what it looks like. Narrow paths, steep climbs, and lots of hidden caves and treasures make it a great place to visit, bad place to stay. Check out the guide below to make sure you get everything on your next adventure.
