MISSION Commencement
When you finally gain access to Wolf’s Den, after being dragged back to the land of the living from Jacob’s hallucinations during The World Is Weak, speak with Wheaty, who lets you know there are some supplies out there that the militia needs.
GO TO the Lookout Tower
Leave Wolf’s Den, and travel (ideally by chopper or quad) northwest, up the mountainside to the Jefferson Lookout Tower.
There’s not likely to be much of a cult presence here; they’ve already committed atrocities and left. But check the location with your binoculars first so the coast is clear.
GET the Map to Find the Cabins
Enter the tower, and locate the cabin map on the table next to a comic book (one of 12 you can collect for Holland Valley Mission: Golden Age Nostalgia). There are now two cabins to venture into. Tackle them in either order, though Cooper Cabin is the closest to your current position.
GO TO Cooper Cabin
Head to Cooper Cabin, and access the cabin by heading in from the west, across the footbridge by the road. Use your binoculars to tag around five foes and a Hunter (a cult hunting party) in and around the cabin. You could approach from the cliffs to the southwest or the lake (west), but the best plan is to descend the winding trail from the footbridge. You can easily creep and strangle each foe, or kill them all in a swift firefight. Just use the walls of the cabin for cover, and stay on the higher ground.
FIND the Cooper Cabin Stash
The stash here is located in a root cellar just southeast of the cabin. Simply enter the cellar, go down the steps, and grab the stash. Then head to the next cabin. Check the cabin for some baseball cards; collect these as part of Story Mission: Grand Slam.
GO TO Redtail Cabin
Drive a quad across the rough forest terrain to Redtail Cabin. Though the place is relatively quiet when you arrive, a hunting party ascends the open rocky terrain to the southeast. Expect five foes and a Hunter. You have the higher ground and numerous places to hide (like the hut with the Arcade poster on it). Easily remove the threats.
FIND the Redtail Cabin Stash
Look southeast to a concrete bunker and metal hatch, adjacent to this cabin. Open the hatch, descend, and gather the second stash.
GO TO Kestrel Cabin
A militia member at Kestrel Cabin radios in to let you and Wheaty know they are under attack. Jump on a quad and drive onto the main dirt road between here and Kestrel Cabin. Unlike previous explorations, stay on your vehicle. Don’t slow down and scan the area or start a stealthy approach: The cult has taken the stash and are escaping on ATVs right now!
STOP the ATV Before It Escapes with the Stash
LOOT the Body to Get the Stash
Zoom past Kestrel Cabin, keeping your speed up. If the enemy carrying the stash gets too far (over 150 meters) away, the objective fails and you don’t get to give all three stashes to Wheaty. To avoid this, drive quickly, avoid any obstacles, and swing left (south) into the river estuary. If the ATV gets away, the sequence restarts.
Here, you’re hampered by two enemies on quads, as well as the foe with the stash. Shoot or ignore them, without stopping or fishtailing so you lose the main focus of the objective. Continue the chase until you either fail the objective, shoot the enemy with the stash, or watch him drive onto the main road, passing Elk Jaw Lodge (cult outpost), and swerving right onto a rocky outcrop by the lake. Ram and remove the foe here, or not at all.
TALK to Wheaty at the Wolf’s Den
Simply return to Wolf’s Den and speak to Wheaty, who gathers the three stashes from you.
