Where to place alien light communication device on Mountain Tops in Fortnite

As you drop into a match, look for the snow-covered mountains on the map (there are four to choose from) and pick whichever two you want to target for this quest.

Head to the top of any of those mountains and you should find the alien devices that you need to interact with. There's no special item that you have to bring with you – the devices are already there, looking like a row of four transparent boxes.

As you walk over to these machines, you should get a prompt on the screen that says 'Communicate'. Simply press your Interact button and you should be able to turn these machines on.
