Days Gone: Iron Mike's Camp Days Gone guide, walkthrough
Last update: 12 December 2022
This page in our guide to Days Gone contains the most important information about Iron Mike's Camp. This is one of the biggest and the most important camps in the game - you will go back here regularly through the entire game.
Iron Mike's Camp is located in Lost Lake region in the center of the map. You can't get there right after starting the game - only the northern regions can be explored at the beginning (Cascade and Belknap).
You need to wait for the moment when Deacon decides to go to Lost Lake and get a medicine for Boozer. This trip is part of No One Saw It Coming main mission. Unlike the previous two camps, Deacon won't be able to enter the camp right away - the protagonist and Iron Mike aren't in good relations with each other. Deacon must sneak into the camp and steal the medicine. He will also meet Rikki and Addy. Rikki will help you transport Boozer to the camp.
All of the actions listed above will lead to the meeting with the leader of Iron Mike's Camp. Complete We've All Done Things main mission to get full access to the camp.
Iron Mike won't give you side quests. Instead, you will get them from Rikki Patil. She stands near the workshop. As always, wait for the radio message informing about a new side quest. After that, you can go to the camp and discuss the details.
The mechanic is the first important NPC in Iron Mike's Camp. He sells high-quality bike parts - they are better than those offered by Manny in Copeland's Camp. Try to purchase all upgrades that increase the performance of your bike. Besides them, you should also get Saddlebags III - they can be useful in fights with Freaker hordes. Sadly, almost all the parts require you to get a specific Trust level.
The second important person in Iron Mike's Camp is the merchant. This NPC sells better weapons. Some of them are really useful. Buy Crowdbreaker once you reach Trust level two. The best weapons require Trust level 3. This camp is connected to missions and side activities found in Lost Lake AND Iron Butte meaning that you will be able to increase your Trust fast.
Boozer's cabin, marked with a special icon, is a very important place in Iron Mike's Camp. Boozer moves in here after you complete enough story missions in Lost Lake (Boozer moves to this place after he leaves the provisional hospital in the camp).
Boozer can still contact Deacon through the radio to inform him about new supplies waiting for the player. These supplies are stored in the chest in front of the cabin. More about this on Free supplies from Boozer page.
At some point later in the game, Deacon finds a puppy and decides to give the dog to Boozer. The puppy's kennel stands near Boozer's cabin. More information about the puppy on Can you pet the dog? page.
Iron Mike's Farm is located east of Iron Mike's Camp. This restricted location is surrounded with a fence but you won't find anything there (outside of interactive beds and a few plants that can be collected). You visit this place during a few story missions - one of the working people here is Boozer.
