Goodsprings Cave is a small natural cave in the hills southeast of Goodsprings, a short walk from the Devil's Gullet and Goodsprings Source. It is a coyote den, and the pack will usually be waiting at the entrance or just inside. The cave itself is short and simple with a few twists, which makes it one of the first dungeons a new player can clear without getting into serious trouble or using up all their stimpaks.

Loot is light: a dose of Cateye under a skeleton just inside the entrance, whatever the dead wastelanders and a dead Bright follower carry, and a hollowed-out rock with random loot just right of the entrance outside. A pool of clean, radiation-free water sits in the middle of the cave. Coyotes are weak individually, but this pack of four adults and two pups can overwhelm a fresh character, so let them come to you at the entrance where you can see them clearly. It pairs well with the gecko hunt at the Source.

How to get there

From Goodsprings head southeast into the hills; the cave entrance sits just southwest of the Devil's Gullet sinkhole.

Tips

  • Let the coyotes come to the entrance instead of chasing them into the tunnels.
  • Pair it with the gecko hunt at Goodsprings Source for easy early experience.
