It is found by going through the grassy area, walking up the hill, turning around and jumping on the invisible barrier. Though there is a limit to how high you can go, the view is still quite nice. | ||

Now press '''RT'''; you should rapidly fly out of the boundaries and into a white area with green landscape underneath. If that happened, then press down on the D-Pad to reduce your speed to the normal camera speed of 1000.00. At this point, you can explore the first part of this level (from the beginning up to the cave with flares) with the camera placed outside of the map. You can even explore the giant lake. | ||
Also take note that if you move the camera back into the level boundaries, you will have to repeat this glitch to re-exit them, so stay out of the boundaries -- keeping the camera above the first waterfall will work. | Also take note that if you move the camera back into the level boundaries, you will have to repeat this glitch to re-exit them, so stay out of the boundaries -- keeping the camera above the first waterfall will work. | ||

Head to where you can find the [[Iron skull]]. Specifically, go to the corner near the skull, and have your companions jump on top of each other's heads. Start jumping up towards the cliff, and one of you will eventually make it up there. | |||
Once up there, you will notice a cliff behind you. Stand facing towards it, and then get the other two players to kill themselves. They should spawn on your head and, with a bit of luck, get onto the cliff. | |||
You can then go onto one of the buildings, or continue up the cliff to find a gigantic grassland containing a large pit and several invisible hills. If you choose to go on the building, you can walk along the edge of the cliff, where you may be able to spot a damaged [[Pelican]] on the river. | |||

''You will need to do this vacation glitch in co-op, though you don't actually need two players.'' | |||
First, get a [[Brute Shot]] from one of the blue-armored [[Brutes]] that help the [[Brute Chieftain]]. Next, go to the wall the [[Iron skull]] is near, and have the second player stand next to it. Then, have the first player jump onto his head and [[Grenade jump|fire two Brute Shot blasts or throw grenades into the second player's head while jumping]]. The first player should be propelled onto the dam, at which point they may continue as described in the instructions for the previous vacation. | |||
