'''Furnace Creek''' is a community-created [[Attack / Defense]] map.

{{Quotation|[https://furnace.tf2maps.net/ TF2Maps promo site]|

The villains at Reliable Excavation Demolition have a new idea on how to demolish their enemies. It's the Solar Laser Unbuilding Gun, or S.L.U.G., a solar powered laser capable of destroying pretty much anything. Builders League United is determined to stop them.

'''Furnace Creek''' is a community-created [[Gravel Pit]]-styled [[Attack / Defense]] map.

Once the BLU team has captured a point, it is locked and can not be retaken by RED. There are three control points, A and B, which are accessible from BLU's base, and C, where RED's spawn is located, requires players to pass through either point A or B to reach.
