We spawned there. As I explained in my other post, I had to choose between walking to a nearby (small and low) mountain to the north or start right there.
I see this entrance as provisory anyways. Future rulers will no doubt wish to improve on this, and nothing is impossible in DF as long as you put enough time in it. Heck, you want a mountain side? With time, you could basically
dig one off the ground.
My first priority as the first ruler to this fortress was really to set up the minimum basic needs for the fortress. So far I am finished with this, and spring is not even finished.
I plan to set up mining operation of the malachine (copper) and bauxite (magma resistant) ores that we can see on the northern mountain side.
Also, don't forget that the location finder garanteed me magma and "special features" on this map. We can expect meeting surprises sooner or later, and the defense of this fortress will no doubt be interesting. Fubb will probably be very happy about it since he said he wanted to play on a plain to erect strange buildings on the ground.
