The first image of Level 93.
Level 93 is the 94th positive level of the Backrooms, discovered on 15/09/2020 by an M.E.G. Search Team originally meant to explore Level 8.
Description:
Level 93 is a seemingly baseless mountain, alike in appearance to Mount Everest. If Level 93 does have a base, it has yet to be seen/recorded.
Entities
All known entities of the Backrooms perish in Level 93. The only traces of entities in Level 93 is their frozen corpses buried in the snow. Entities without a physical form (Smilers, Howlers, etc.) do not seem to spawn in Level 93.

Anomalous Properties:
Composition
Level 93's composition is very weak, simply consisting of ice, snow, sodium, carbon, and low concentrations of iron, mercury, arsenic, bismuth, and quartz. Due to this, it is extremely risky to scale or explore Level 93 due to the incredible probability of landslides and/or avalanches. Protective equipment is advised when exploring Level 93.
Glaciers
Glaciers are the most common feature that can be observed in Level 93.
Glaciers of Level 93 are composed of ice, snow, dry ice, tungsten, rubidium, quartz, acetone, mercury, and low concentrations of iron and carbon.
Glaciers of Level 93 do not appear to follow the established laws of physics. Glaciers encountered in Level 93 have been observed scaling the mountain, expanding and contracting, absorbing regions of the level, and entirely solidifying.
Other Features
Level 93 harbors many other anomalous features, some of which are as of yet unconfirmed.
Trees - CONFIRMED
The trees of Level 93 can only be observed in the beginning stages of Level 93's weather patterns, and in flat areas below 10° exceeding ~12m2. Species of trees encountered in Level 93 include: silver birch, red oak, amazon rosewood, white spruce, etc. Through unknown means, trees incapable of surviving in Level 93's harsh climate thrive here.
Seismic Activity - CONFIRMED
The summit of Level 93 has a ~1/365 chance to spontaneously erupt, meaning this occurs at least once a year; however, the chances increase exponentially as one spends more time in Level 93. During an eruption, these events are observed:
- Moment of eruption: Eruption occurs. Summit is obliterated. Smoke erupts from the summit in question.
- ~1 minute: Debris begins falling to the ground.
- ~1-3 minutes: Lava begins flowing from the mountain at an accelerated rate.
- ~3+ minutes: Smoke ends emission.
Level 93's lava appears to flows at least twice as fast than it does in the Frontroom and other levels.
Tents - CONFIRMED
Tents usually manifest in flat areas of any scale or distance from the summit. Tents can appear in either red or yellow. Most tents are home to Hounds or Insanities. Due to this phenomenon, it is advised not enter any tents in Level 93.
Lakes - UNCONFIRMED
Claimed by u/Yttrium in 2022. Lakes are supposedly one of the rarest features found in Level 93. Supposedly, lakes can be found on flat land exceeding ~100m2.
OTHER PHENOMENA ARE YET TO BE RECORDED

Discovery:
Level 93 was discovered by an M.E.G. Search Team that was exploring the depths of Level 8. Here is the archived communication between Base Gamma and Search Team 09:
ARCHIVED DOCUMENT: L93 Discovery Log
Search Team 09-3: Responsive? Responsive?
Base Gamma-34: Yes, we are responsive.
Search Team 09-3: Nothing's necessarily special about Level 8. Entity-wise.
Base Gamma-34: Well, then… Okay, make your way back to base.
Search Team 09 unknowingly exited Level 8, expecting to end up in Level 9, however ended up in Level 93
Search Team 09-3: This isn't Level 9.
Base Gamma-34: What do you mean by that?
Search Team 09-3: We left Level 8 and we appeared on a mountain. Don't know how, but…
Base Gamma-34: Can you describe the environment?
Search Team 09-3: It's uh.. looks like a mountain. Like Mount Everest or something. I don't see a horizon, so it must be pretty tall. And I don't think this is the summit either.
Base Gamma-34: Anything else?
Search Team 09-3: There's… actual weather, somehow.
Base Gamma-34: How so?
Search Team 09-3: Well, it was just snowing a moment ago, but it's getting heavier…
Base Gamma-34: Okay. Get out of there, back to base, ASAP.
[END OF ARCHIVED DOCUMENT]
It is presumed that Search Team 09 ended up exiting the level after ~1 hour. However, due to a lack of oxygen in Level 93, all members of Search Team 09 left with hypoxia (oxygen deficiency) and died soon after. Due to this, no exits have been recorded.
Colonies and Outposts:
There are no known colonies or outposts on this level due to it's harsh climate and characteristics.
Entrances and Exits:
Entrances
Level 93 can be accessed through Level 8, 47, 115, 135, and the Mountain Village.
- Level 8
- Noclipping through a corner of Level 8.
- Small chance of ending up here when going through Level 8's usual cave openings.
- Level 47, Level 135
- Bury yourself in snow.
- Level 115
- Cut through a wall of Level 115.
- The Mountain Village
- Wander into the forest for 4 hours.
Exits
There is no known way to exit Level 93. Search Team 09 happened upon the exit, however they were unable to give their testimony. It is claimed that a wanderer descended Level 93 and landed in Level 135, however exiting through this method has not been recreated successfully.
