Backwoods and standing camp location?
Where is backwoods and standing camp? Backwoods is for bounty quest and standing camp is where someone said recipes for smelting are.

I'm looking for "Standing camp" as well. Quest gives no other hints besides the name so it's another exhaustive search one.
I literally sat around for like 1 hour quick saving and checking the load button for the location of backwoods only to lose it. It was somewhere near the transitional loading screen by the starting area and the second area that houses the lighthouse and the guard area with a mini tavern and a order knight hanging out there. Could not find again after I lost it though. Found a lot of bandits. Not the ones needed though unfortunately.
by the way i found where the bandits are for the quest, its at the broken ship at the top of the mountain where you scout the area near the small settlement, i already killed bandits before there but somehow they spawned new ones for the mercenary quest i will drop a screenshoot too..
P.S i cant drop a screenshot basically its at the top of the waterfall where the broken ship is to the right of the camp with npcs

I'm at a lighthouse looking down at a broken ship and a camp of npc hunters. I think it's the ship you originally boarded and it got destroyed, I'm not sure if this is the area because I see no waterfall.
Standing Camp is on the road between the Hound and the Fishing Village. If you have the map, it's called "Expedition" on the map.
Just a tip. When you load a save game, the area your in is listed on the save file. I highly suggest making a save whenever you enter a new load zone, just so you can look at the load screen information of what the region is called, and make a note of it.

This will help you hugely later when people are giving you direction or referring to certain places.

And where are those who set off on the expedition to the ice ridge? I've been searching and searching. Boon said they've already set off, but they shouldn't be far away, but where? :D

One was in the first cave on the left from the zone entrance, one in the undead "hunter" camp on top-right of the map, one at the entrance to..cant remember if it was a failed mine or primestrider smithy. Down a valley on bottom-left side of the map. I think the quest actually ticked them all off before I got the last one actually - bottom right side of the map, on the way to the ancient knowledge
