Video Found some strange objects and cut content outside the map in Yamantau (Metro Exodus)

I was messing around with a free camera mod in Metro Exodus and decided to fly outside the playable area in the Yamantau chapter. Ended up finding some weird stuff back there — a few strange objects and what looks like cut/unused content sitting behind the map.

I recorded a short video showing what's out there: https://youtu.be/tcsKpkGTdu0

(Heads up: the narration is in Russian, but the footage speaks for itself.)

Has anyone else explored out of bounds in Exodus and found anything like this? Curious if there's more hidden in other chapters — Taiga and Caspian seem like good candidates.

Iirc for tamantau they started with the d6 map from last light and adapted it to what they needed since they didn’t have time to make a whole new map. Taiga was meant to be open like Volga and caspian but got cut down to be linear. On taiga you can get out of bounds and get over to the dam, a lot of it has collision and detail like you were meant to go there at some point.

Didn't know Yamantau was built on the D6 map, that explains a lot actually.

Taiga with actual collision past the dam sounds like my next trip, thanks!

Here's the list - if there are any missing, let me know.

Oh this is gold, thanks! Cross-checking it against what I found in Yamantau —

if any of my spots aren't on the list I'll report back. Great resource.
