Before making your way to Superior Summit from the Battle Bus, it is important to know where you're supposed to be heading. The area is located in the Southeastern snowy part of the Fortnite Chapter 5 map, east of the Hazy Hillside Point of Interest (POI). It is quite difficult to miss the Superior Summit landmark since it is the highest peak on the map, with its sheer scale allowing it to stand out among other landmarks.

Now that you know where you're heading, it's time to get into a match and hop out of the Battle Bus towards Superior Summit. However, it is important to note that due to its positioning and proximity to the fairly popular Hazy Hillside POI and Stormy Station landmark, there's a fair chance that you might come across enemies looting in those areas.

This makes going to Superior Summit right off the bus not a feasible strategy since you would be unarmed when descending from the peak. That said, there is a way to work around this and potentially complete this quest more efficiently.

You can head into the Hazy Hillside POI and equip yourself with some weapons and utility items like Shockwave Grenades and Flowberry Fizz to help with your ascent.

Additionally, you can also take a chance and rush to the Vending Machine present in the Hazy Hillside POI to get your hands on one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Mythics. Using the Dash Attack that comes with the Ninja Turtle weapons, especially with the Flowberry Fizz's low gravity effect, can greatly help when trying to surmount Superior Summit in Fortnite.
