Detailed walkthrough
The event begins by gathering around the campfire. Bloodbugs will spawn during each activity. The first interactive activity is to fight off the "shadows" which are five wooden boards painted black that will appear around the camp, dealing enough damage will cause them to disappear. The next interactive activity is to eat, drink, and emote around the campfire. The activity after that is to gather firewood from three areas nearby which will start spawning dry kindling and wet kindling. Collecting 10 dry kindling will progress the event but wet kindling will just spawn ants, ticks, and radroaches.

The next activity is to find the missing camper's items. The camper's backpack is either in the locker room or under the marquee where the radstag doe corpse is hanging and the camper's lunchbox in the picnic area, but the rest of the event changes depending on which holotape scout leader Penny finds. If it's Layla's you will find a lucky charm in the showers, a diary in the locker room, and an occult tombs in the tent. Once all these items are collected a 1-star wendigo named Camp counselor Nia will spawn along with a pack of wolves and bloodbugs. The campfire will start going out and the wendigo must be killed before it goes out or the event will be failed, you can gather and add additional kindling to the campfire to add more time.

If it's Ronnie's you'll find insect pins in the locker room, a dirt-filled-jar in the camp office, and a pet rock is northwest of the campfire located near a water pump and cooking station. Once all these items are collected waves of insects will start spawning. There will be three waves in total which will include, radroaches, ticks, ants, bloodbugs, bloatflies, stingwings, bee swarms and radscorpions. The campfire will start going out and the 1-star radscorpion in the third wave must be killed before it goes out or the event will be failed, you can gather and add additional kindling to the campfire to add more time.
