This maze-like cave is, apparently, one of the original sites infested by wendigos, following the banishment of the Gourmands' leaders from the raiders.
Points of interest[]
The cave is a mandatory stop during Key to the Past and quickly proves to be a deathly maze of claustrophobic, poorly lit corridors filled with a variety of monsters, including ghouls, mirelurks, and of course, wendigos. The confusing layout can be made a little saner by remembering that the cavern is shaped roughly like the letter B.
The entrance lies to the southeast. Major points of interest include the wendigo chamber in the northernmost chamber, which also includes the location's steamer trunk, a power armor spawn point at the central tunnel that runs east to west (can't miss it, it has a large drop, a stair in the center), and a large chamber that runs north to south on the western side of the cave, which includes plenty of enemy spawns.
Edie's Note: The note is on a sleeping bag in the large chamber past the mirelurks with the waterfall.
Morris's End: The holotape is on a rock by the sleeping bags in the large chamber past the mirelurks with the waterfall.
Raider's Note: The note is next to the body of a dead raider on a small ledge directly south of the waterfall in the large cavern, around halfway through the cave.
