“ | Welcome, to Charles Darling's Triassic Preserve!
The past - today! — Enclosure publicity blurb
|
” |
Enclosure is a community-created, three-stage Payload map released during the Jungle Inferno Update. The map depicts certain enclosures and facilities of Charles Darling's Triassic Preserve. Mr. Darling's finest exhibits include Pteranodon, Brachiosaurus, Triceratops, Velociraptor, and Tyrannosaurus rex in lush environments.
A portion of the money made from the sales of the Jungle Inferno Campaign Pass goes to the authors of the map.
Enclosure was contributed to the Steam Workshop.

Locations(New)
The BLU team must push the cart through three stages, past major facilities and main attractions of Triassic Preserve.
Aviary Gate 03 (Stage One)
- Pteranodon Aviary: Immediately outside of the Hydroelectric Plant that serves as BLU's base, is the Pteranodon Aviary. The area is full of ramps and varied levels of elevation, and also includes pitfalls and white water hazards. A flank route on the left is seperated by a chasm, and leads underneath a small wooden structure to the Payload track, as well as the high-ground overlooking Capture Point A. The flank route to the right, the Service Hall, is crucial for stategic positioning for both teams, allowing RED to ambush the Cart, and BLU to bypass RED's defenses. The Service Hall includes access to Ramps, Capture Point A, the Observation Room, a one-way gate that provides an overlook into the Amber Mines (known as High Hide), and the Fan Exit to Amber Mine after Point A has been captured.
- Amber Mine: After the Pteranodon Aviary, through Aviary Gate 04, is the Amber Mine. This location features Hammon's Amber Mining Co. buildings, as well as a battlements for BLU (known as Catwalk), and battlements for RED (known as Sorting Shed). RED's base is located behind the large building with the "Hammond's" sign on it. The Restricated Area, which can be entered via the Observation Room, provides a crucial flanking route for the BLU team, allowing them to close the distance to the RED team while remaining in cover. The Payload travels between BLU's catwalk and RED's battlements, and the final goal for the stage is the Amber Mine Entrance, located near RED's base.
Security Station 02 (Stage Two)
- Security Station 02: The Amber Mine now serves as BLU's base, and immediately outside of it are two bridges leading over a stream. To the right is the Trail flank route, leading to a high-ground area overlooking Capture point (A) at the main Security Station building, as well as to the right flank of the Boathouse area. Once Capture point (A) is captured, the Control Room flank route inside the main Security Station building unlocks, providing additional routes for BLU to attack along the left side of the Boathouse area.
- Goldbloom Boathouse & Freeman Airboat Tours: After Capture point (A) is a Pipeline the cart will pass under, into the Boathouse & Freemain Airboat Tours section. In the center of the area, a large wooden structure holds the Payload track, provides high-ground and cover for both teams in multiple locations, and acts as a divider for different routes through the area. Immediately on the right, is the Triceratops flank route, that leads up to the Goldbloom Room, and an advantageous area that provides high-ground overlooking the final Capture point (B) inside the Boathouse. RED's base is located behind the Boathouse, on the far right side.
Bridges over a slippery stream of whitewater.
Holding Facility Gate 01 (Stage Three)
- Goldbloom Warehouse: The first section of stage three, is the Goldbloom Warehouse. The back of the warehouse is BLU's base, and immediately outside of it is a bridge leading with the trackover the Raptor Enclosure. To the right of the Raptor Enclosure is the Maintenance Shed, which features surfable walls, offering an opportunity for unique movement strategies. After the bridge over the Raptor Enclosure is the first Capture point (A), and once captured, the large gate behind it, Gate 01, will open.
- Sector 6 - After Gate 01 is Sector 6. On the far left side of the area is a small flank route leading to Capture point (B). On the right side of the area is a ramp leading to a powerful flank route, that provides high-ground overlooking Capture point (B), as well as opportunties for both teams to get ambush the enemy. Once Capture point (B) is captured, the BLU team will be rewarded with a forward spawn at the start of the Sector 6 area, and Gate 01 will close.
- T. rex Enclosure: After Capture point (B) is the map's final area, the T. rex Enclosure. This area of the map is condensely packed, with most flank routes being almost immediately beside the track. All routes funnel into a large building with the Final point, and the T. rex finale. In the right side of the building housing the final point is RED's spawn, the Hatchery.

Trivia
- Sharing an issue that the Jurassic Park film has to a lesser extent, none of the dinosaurs displayed in Triassic Park are from the Triassic Period. Most are Cretaceous dinosaurs, excepting Brachiosaurus making an appearance in the Late Jurassic.
- "Freeman Airboat Tours" is a reference to Gordon Freeman, the protagonist from the Half-Life series, as well as to the chapter "Water Hazard" from Half-Life 2, which largely consists of driving an airboat.
