Barton Thorn

 is person living in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Background
The player can encounter him by traveling east from Goodsprings. He will confront the player, asking for the Courier to save his girl, who is trapped by geckos on the ridge above. Upon clearing the ridge he will admit he tricked the player, and try to kill the player in order to gain access to a stash of ammunition.

The radio tower spoken of is around the rocks and to the right. Keep your eyes peeled for all the ingredients in the area.

The stash in question is not very valuable and belonged to a man named Johnny. When approaching the stash be cautious of the bear traps on the ground.

There are three bear traps on the way.
