Bootjack Cavern

Bootjack Cavern is an unmarked location in the Mojave Wasteland that is east of Wrecked Highwayman. From there, head due east (toward Lucky Jim Mine) until you reach the cliff face, then head north along the cliff.

The cavern entrance faces west, towards the road. The Pip-Boy display is deceptive because it displays the quest marker on the east-facing side of the mesa, in the cave's interior. Players having difficulty finding the location would be well-advised to begin at the road and head east, rather than beginning at Lucky Jim Mine and heading west.

The cavern is a small cave consisting of a single interior section populated by fire geckos.

Exterior
A group of fire geckos guard the entrance to the cave.

Interior
Inside the cavern, there are two dead prospectors, a number of fire geckos (around 12), and little loot. One of the two dead prospectors has a hunting shotgun and a second random weapon, either a silenced .22 pistol, a Single shotgun, a Caravan Shotgun or a 10mm SMG. The other has 13 bottle caps, a fresh potato, a knife, purified water, and some scotch.

Red Lucy's fire gecko eggs are inside this cavern at the far southern tip.

Notable Loot

 * Hunting shotgun on a dead prospector
 * Fire Gecko Eggs for Red Lucy's Bleed Me Dry Quest.

Appearances
Bootjack Cavern appears in Fallout: New Vegas.
