Mount Gordo is one of three mountains in the State of San Andreas in Grand Theft Auto V, with the others being Mount Chiliad and Mount Josiah. Mount Gordo is the smallest peak in the state. It is located northeast of Blaine County. Jolene Cranley-Evans's Ghost can be found on the mountain.
History
In 1978, Jolene Cranley-Evans and her husband, Jock Cranley, were walking by the cliffs overlooking the El Gordo Lighthouse. The couple have been known to be having troubles in their marriage. Jock wanted to leave Blaine County to pursue his dreams of becoming a stuntman. Jolene wanted to stay, saying that she had to look after her parents and run their thriving guest house. As a result, during the hike, Jock pushed Jolene off of a cliff on Mount Gordo, and she later died from internal injuries due to her fall. The police concluded that Jolene fell off the cliff by accident, and Jock was released without charge (despite being covered in blood).
Haunting
See full article: Jolene Cranley-Evan's Ghost.
Jolene's ghost appears at the top of Mount Gordo at night, between 23:00 and 00:00. When the player approaches it, it disappears. On the rock that the ghost floats over, the name "Jock" is written with blood, accusing her husband (Jock Cranley) of murder. This serves as an easter egg. The ghost fades away from view as the player gets close to it. This phenomenon can be seen at any point in the game, not only at 100% like the UFOs and other myths.
Trivia
- "Gordo" means fat or large in Spanish and Portuguese. This is likely a reference to the mountain's large size.
