A '''Warm Cave''' is a common type of outdoor cave that has no transition screen but provides a [[Warmth]] bonus. Such caves are found in every region except [[Coastal Highway]], [[Keeper's Pass North]], and [[Keeper's Pass South]].

[[Cave (Transition Zone)]] are not considered Warm Caves, as these are indoor spaces. Certain Bear Caves (such as the ones in Coastal Highway ) do not have interiors, and also do not count.

== Overview ==
Warm Caves are divided into two layers, a cold front area and warm back area.

=== Front Sheltered Zone ===
The front of the cave simply has the same air temperature as outside the cave, however it is completely sheltered from the wind regardless of wind direction, and a [[Magnifying Lens]] can be used within it.

=== Back Warm Zone ===
The back of the cave is warmer like indoor spaces, but the back of the cave does not have a fixed temperature. Instead there is a warmth bonus which is generally sufficient to allow sleeping without a fire, at least if the player has sufficiently warm clothing and [[Bedroll]].

*The player walks slower as they transition to the back of the cave, and immediately receives a Warmth bonus.
*It is possible to [[Curing|cure]] hides, guts, and saplings in the back of such caves.
*Does not progress [[Cabin Fever]].
*A [[Campfire]] may be lit on the floor, in the front or back of the cave.
*A Magnifying Lens may not be used, although it is possible to light a fire within the back zone while standing in the front zone.
*The light level for the purpose of performing tasks is the same as outside ([[Mending]] and Repairing is not possible during a Blizzard/Heavy Fog [[Weather]] at night).

== Special "Warm Caves" ==

There are also a few exterior buildings that give a warmth bonus despite not having a transition to an indoor space:

* The outdoor room with the bed at the [[Maintenance Yard]]
* Break room at [[Last Resort Cannery]]
* Room outside the [[Workshop]]
* [[Stone Church]]

The following areas behave like Warm Caves, though these indoor areas progress Cabin Fever.

* [[Mountaineer's Hut]]
* [[Forgotten Exploration]]
* The front porch of the [[Pleasant Valley Farmstead]]
* The maintenance hallway in the south tunnel in [[Far Range Branch Line]]
