The mission is initiated by finding the prison guard's body. The body is located on the right side of the road just after crossing [[Heartbreak Bridge]] on the way to [[Community Hall]] from [[Barn (Molly's)]]. The prison guard's body will contain an improvised knife and a Blackrock Penitentiary Memo collectible. Follow the trail of blood to the outbuilding. Inside will be a prisoner's body with a blood stained convict note. Another prisoner's body is found further off the road in the same direction at the [[Forest Cave (Pleasant Valley location)|Forest Cave]]. To complete the mission, follow the road towards [[Signal Hill]], but turn left a short distance after crossing the unnamed bridge. The abandoned camp is located at [[Hilltop Cave]]. Deep inside the cave on the left is an ammunition can cache filled with supplies: 20 [[Revolver Ammunition|revolver ammunition]], [[accelerant]], [[Military-Grade MRE|MRE]], [[flare]], [[antiseptic]].<br />
