Found in

- Lost LakeLost Lake is the central region of the map, built around a resort lake that holds Iron Mike's Camp. It becomes your main base for the middle of the story and packs 6 Hordes, 3 infestations and Sherman's Camp.
- O'Leary Mountain SafehouseThe O'Leary Mountain Safehouse is the converted Forest Service fire lookout Deacon and Boozer live in at the start. It is your first safe place to sleep and save, and it has a stash of crafting loot.
Good to know
- This is where the game moves you from the Belknap and Cascade area into the Lost Lake region.
- The song on the ride south is "Soldier's Eyes" by Jack Savoretti.
- In the Broken Road permadeath mode, this mission starts the second act.
- Listen to the chatter while you sneak through Lost Lake later; it hints at Rikki and Addy's relationship.
