Location Quick Reference
From MHWiki
The Location Quick Reference is meant for players to easily see at a glance, what is it they might need to buy or what to do at a particular location. Locations are laid out in the general order in which most players will encounter them. However, players will occasionally need to travel to another location other than their current hunting ground in order to purchase cheese, traps and crafting materials, such as returning to the Town of Gnawnia to restock on standard cheese.
