{{Main|Alpine (cut Halo 3 level)}}
'''alpine''', known as <code>090_alpine</code> in the game files, is a cut campaign mission viewable in the ''Halo 3'' game files due to the release of the ''[[Halo 3 Mod Tools]]''. The folder itself contains no files of particular note, but the name itself reveals several details. The name ''alpine'' describes the kind of terrain the mission was intended to have - perfectly matching the landscapes found in the final game level of [[The Covenant (level)|The Covenant]] - itself known as <code>100_citadel</code>. The <code>100</code> designation clashes with another cut level, <code>100_forecity</code>, due to the fact that <code>090_alpine</code> and <code>100_forecity</code> were combined to become <code>100_citadel</code>.{{Ref/Twitter|dmiller360|1498175220737196032|Dan Miller|Quote=Alpine and Forerunner City become ‘The Covenant’ if I recall correctly.|D=28|M=02|Y=2022}} This process was done fairly early on in development.{{Ref/Twitter|dmiller360|1498411926853865475|Dan Miller|Quote=I’m surprised we shipped those scripts at all.
