How to unlock the Highlands Explorer achievement in Borderlands 2 - Definitive Guide

Not a solution but if anyone is having trouble with this one, make sure you have Casa de Mordecai discovered from inside the Wildlife Exploitation Preserve. I had all maps uncovered but couldn't find it. When I went to it the achievement popped up.

Thank you so much for this. Playing co-op and only I went up to Mordecai whilst my partner stayed and killed the stalkers. My achievement popped and hers did not and we could not work out why....this was why. Again thank you!

Appreciate this tip! I am playing again on an alt account and started with a boosted level 30 so I skipped the NVHM story! Ran around thinking I had everything but completely forgot about when you meet Mordi here in the story!

In Wildlife Exploitation Preserve, you can accidentally miss the mountain where Mordecai hung out. The entire area is open, and this zone is located higher, but is not marked with a dark spot.
