How to place a spirit crystal at the tallest mountain in Fortnite

Placing a spirit crystal at the tallest mountain in Fortnite is quite an easy challenge to complete - all you have to do is reach the peak of the mountain and interact with the spot where you'll place the crystal.

You'll be able to spot the peak of Mount Kay by the little flag sitting atop it.

The flag marks the peak.

What you need to decide, however, is exactly when you're going to attempt this challenge. Thanks to the mountain's height, it's a very easy place to land, which means you could easily encounter another player attempting the challenge and there's no guarantee they'll let you complete it in peace.

For this reason, it may be a good idea to wait a while before heading up Mount Kay.

Though, if you want to complete this challenge as quickly as possible, we recommend keeping an eye on the other players flying towards Mount Kay. If there's too many, then you'll know to hang back and wait till the area is quiet.

Keep an eye out for other players.
