I have a t-shirt somewhere with a map of a 10x10 room, stats for an orc, and the Orc & Pie Dungeon, all printed on the t-shirt. I used to wear it to conventions so I would always have a scenario I could fall back on if I needed to run something on short notice.

The chest is actually a pie mimic.
I do need several nested d100 tables to figure out what's actually in the chest....

The hex has 360 squaresI don't quite understand this... I think your math might be off?
A 10mi x 10mi square is 100 sqare miles. A similarly sized hex of 100 sq.mi area will be about 10.75mi across the short diameter, and roughly 12.5mi across the long diameter (ie, corner to opposite corner).
I find this calculator to be helpful for hexes. Just plug in any parameter (eg, side, area, diameter, etc) and the rest pop out automagically:
