Detailed walkthrough
After emerging from the Collapsed Overpass Tunnel, you will find yourself on the High Road, and you will be contacted by Ulysses and given your next task. A marked men camp will be a small distance ahead of you when you emerge, so be careful. Kill or avoid the marked men in their small camp, and use the available Commissary terminal if neccessary.

Then you will spot two collapsed buildings farther up the road. There is a nuclear warhead which you must detonate in order to pass, and doing so will also kill a marked man in the collapsed building. If you climb this building you will find The Crow's Nest, where the Advanced riot gear is located.

Continuing past the Crow's nest, around three deathclaws will be on the high road near the Ruined Highway Interchange. Another nuclear warhead is located here, on top of a truck. Use extreme caution when travelling through this section, as the deathclaws have a habit of sneaking up on you.

The high road ends past the next bend, and there is a small road going off to the left which you must take. The Junction 7 Rest Stop is located to the right of the high road at the end, and the Snow globe - Lonesome Road is located here, but be wary of Tunnelers.

Follow the small road right to the end, where you will find the Ashton Silo Control Station. Be wary of marked men along this road. Activate the console after ED-E has tinkered with it to trigger another audio log from Whitley, and to complete the quest.
