Good to know

Madrugada has 7 checkpoints in all.
Spike strips across the road will pop your tyres if you try to blast through in a car.
Guards have to run to the alarm to trigger it, so drop anyone heading for it first.
Its locked room opens with the Mogote Foothills Checkpoint Key, which you get for capturing the post.

What's here

A small cluster of huts and outpost buildings around the road, manned by a handful of FND sentries. Expect an alarm and spike strips laid across the lane. A few checkpoints also carry an Antón Castillo billboard.

How to take it

Scout from a rise first and tag every sentry with your phone. Shoot the alarm box, or stop any guard who runs for it, and reinforcements will not arrive. Keep in mind that a guard who spots the broken alarm can still alert the rest. A suppressed weapon and a quiet approach keep this a short fight. Do not try to drive through, since the spike strips stop most vehicles.

Rewards

Clearing the post gives Dani XP and the key to the checkpoint's locked room, the Mogote Foothills Checkpoint Key. A local you can talk to after the capture reveals nearby anti-aircraft sites, ambushes, FND bases and other checkpoints.
