Can you get to Coastal Highway from Mystery Lake or something?
Hey guys,

I just saw a couple posts referencing going from Mystery Lake to Coastal Highway, but how do you do this if it's even possible?

Yep.
go to the Dam.. past it on the RR tracks is a tunnel.. follow it.. tada! your there.
EDIT: Oh, be warned.. you start in a very cold place..... with not a lot of 'real estate' around.

Oh sweet! Didn't think it was possible.

Before I leave Mystery Lake, is there any place I should check? I've gone from Trapper's homestead to the Lake Office to the dam and made out with a lot of medical supplies, a rifle with 21 bullet(after subtracting the ones used for hunting), a bunch of food and drink, wood, and matches.

I also killed Fluffy, which scared the crap outta me when I went down the stairs to the hall, couldn't see, and just fired one shot in the dark. It was pretty sweet if you ask me.

Totally up to you...
I never migrate. But I never go for long plays..
I migrated simply to do it once.. now I stay in place until I decide to die.
My only advice is... if you have a stock of good stuff... dont leave until you have it used up. its going to decay while your gone, and probably to much to carry...
That's the thing, I haven't made a stockpile yet. I've literally just carried everything I've found and wanted. The only place I haven't gone since I can't find it is the bunker, so I don't know what else to do, if I should migrate.

Can you go back to Mystery Lake?

Yes. travel all over as you wish.
That bunker can be a mystery....
I ve died a few times just looking for it... normally knowing I shouldnt but not caring.
But once you do find it.. its usually good for the effort.
But thats me.. I dont do the hibernate live thing...
I do like to set up and go for a bit, but not with that one.
Yeah, I know what ya mean by the bunker being hard to find. My brother also bought the game after he same me playing it and he found it right after he spawned in Mystery Lake between Trapper's Homestead and Unnamed Pond, on the side of a hill. It was filled with water, food, and some other supplies that were pretty helpful.

I'd imagine an ideal location for the bunker would be in the center or at least between a few good locations for scavenging.

Does Coastal Highway have anything like that?

best place i've seen on CH side of the map is the gas station/garage in "coastal town". It's pretty big with plenty of things to store stuff in and its somewhat near the center of Coastal Highway. I loved it as a base.

excuse me, do i have to go through the ravine?

Yes, Coastal Highway is through the other end of the ravine.

The Ravine will bring you to Coastal Highway or CH. To get to Pleasnt Valley or PV from CH go to the Abandoned Mine, or from ML use the dam's Carter River to get to PV. Stay warm my friend.

Bunkers " spawn randomly in ML and PV,, there are I believe nine locations in each that the bunker could be, some are loaded with good stuff, others not so good, just food and water, which is not bad, but I really like to get the two gun bunker or the tool bunker

As far as I know, there are no bumkers in Coastal Hiway, and have plenty of bandages and hydrogen peroxide, lots of wolves.

And have you cracked the safes at Trappers and the Dam, wouldnt leave before I did

Live long and Prosper

Finding things is part of the fun. There are maps in the guides section if you want spoilers.
