The Camp Guardian daily log is a series of paper notes in Fallout: New Vegas. They can be found scattered around the trail up to Camp Guardian. They are all written by Sergeant Banner.

Locations[]

Listed below are the 11 note locations. Each collected note will cause a note to be added by script. As such, the order in which the notes are unlocked is 7, 3, 18, 12, 20, 13, 5, 8, 15, 19, and 14, regardless of the order in which the player collects them.

  • West of Camp Guardian, going up to Guardian Peak, just before the first white fence, leaning against a rock (not in a bush).
  • Just past the first fence, in a bush.
  • Again in a bush, just past the second fence encountered going up.
  • On the crude stairs just past the fourth bit of white fence going up.
  • Continuing up the stairs, at the top in a bush to the left near a jalapeño pepper plant.

After crossing the first bridge:

  • West of Guardian Peak, stuck in a bush close to the ridge, near a broc flower just below the top bridge.
  • Very close to the previous note, in an immediately adjacent bush.
  • Stuck in a bush, first to the right when passing the top bridge.
  • On the stairs going to the radio/overlook.
  • At the top of the stairs.
  • By the chair at the top of the peak, near a Sunset Sarsaparilla crate.

Day 3

This place is a mess. Most of the old hiking trails are buried in landslides, and the rest is so dusted you can't tell which direction you're supposed to go. I don't know what the hell the survey team was thinking when they said this was a strategically sound location. At least we were issued plenty of rations and the river has plenty of fresh water. We could eat for months. Let's hope tomorrow brings some headway cleaning this place up.

Day 5

We've managed to shovel most of the debris up to the first bridge. This thing looks like a wreck. Thankfully, there were a few wooden shacks around we can dismantle for scrap to rebuild. I just hope we don't run out of scrap before we finish the trail. Jackson says he heard some kind of howling the other night. It sounded like the wind to me.

Day 7

Okay, we're making good headway cleaning up the paths. With only the 12 of us, I'm amazed we've moved this much rock in such a short time. Kale and I made it to the top yesterday. The survey team was right. Guardian Peak has one hell of a view, but we still have a lot of work ahead of us. I sent our runner to Bravo to request a radio from McCarran. There isn't much point in having an overwatch camp here if it takes us at least an hour to sprint to Bravo to report a Legion Assault.

Day 8

More complaints of strange noises by Jackson. I'm starting to think he still has some unresolved issues after seeing his last squad wiped out by a Legion slaver squad to the south. I sent out a few men to investigate, but they couldn't find anything. I think should keep Jackson away from the munitions until he calms down.

Day 12

We managed to get the rest of the path cleared. Some pre-war fencing was mostly intact, and we were able to set it up as a makeshift barrier, on the more dangerous cliffs. I hope none of these jarheads fall off. We found a few cave entrances, as we were clearing rubble. They lead back to each other, with just a single collapsed path which appears to lead down into the mountain. The damn survey team didn't mention any caves. I hope we don't find any more little surprises.

Day 13

It's been almost a week, and still no sign of a radio from McCarran. I'm sending a runner to Bravo to see if they can spare a handheld or any other radio gear, until McCarran can get around to sending the gear I requested. I swear those dumb bastards back at command expect us to use carrier pigeons or something.

Day 14

It's been a week and still no sign of a radio from McCarran. At least Bravo was nice enough to give us a handheld so we can relay to them in the meantime should Caesar try anything. Halford will get the radio set up if and when it finally arrives. For now he is in charge of the handheld and daily reports to Bravo.

Day 15

The handheld is working well enough and we finished building steps up the steeper sections of the path. We can finally move the rest of our gear to the top. Last night Jackson came screaming into the tent swearing up and down he saw shadows moving in the water. I know Legionaries are know to be fast runners, but swimming across the river? I sent half of the men in pairs to search the area, but again we came up empty-handed. I'm starting to think Jackson is unstable and may need counseling. I'll request a replacement when we get the radio from McCarran.

Day 18

We finally got the radio from McCarran. I've set it up on the peak so anyone on overwatch duty can quickly radio in if the Legion makes a move. I'd like to know which genius back at command decided to send a squad to this location, but didn't think to give us a radio so we could actually call in an attack. Probably another politician's son.

Day 19

Ok, now I'm starting to hear noises. During my watch last night, I definitely heard splashes down in the water. I requested an additional survey from McCarran, but they blew it off as nerves. Fish don't make that much damn noise! I sent down half of the squad with lamps, but they couldn't see anything. We can't find any other cave openings. Maybe I've caught a little crazy from Jackson. I wish we had some Cateye. Can't see shit at night.

Day 20

More surprises. Collins came across a cave entrance right behind our damn tent. The survey team should have caught this if they'd done a thorough job. I have no idea if anything is in there, but we don't have the manpower to deal with any serious pests. I'm going to have some choice words for Burke the next time I see him. This isn't the first time that idiot skipped over details while surveying an area. I hope to god we're not sitting on some kind of nest. I'm going to send in Frakes and Collins to scout the caves tomorrow. If we have to, we'll use explosives to collapse the cave.

Notes[]

These items show up as quest related in the inventory, yet no known quest exists. They are possibly part of a removed or bugged quest related to Comm Officer Tilden at Ranger Station Bravo, as he will comment on how Camp Guardian has been silent for a while due to radio trouble.
