Walden Pond

Walden Pond is a location in the Commonwealth in Fallout 4.

Layout
The pond itself is small and highly irradiated (+10), with an island in the middle without obvious significance which smokes mysteriously. Up on the hill to the west, there is an automated tour box in front of a cabin that was home to Henry David Thoreau. Beyond this is a gift shop - a much larger building, which is booby-trapped with a few makeshift bombs and one of those monkeys with the clapping cymbals. Next to the master locked back door, held up by a knife, there is a "Note to Tweez". The note reads as follows:

"Tweez, If you are reading this, then you're an idiot. this is the last time I tell you, we're locking this door. Use the entrance in the sewer pipe. Next time you forget, I'm locking your ass out permanently."

- Walter

The sewer pipe mentioned in the note is found outside the cabin on the edge of the lake. Inside the sewer entrance, past the long pipe, Tweez and Bear can be heard talking about Thoreau and transcendentalism. In this first room, there is a hunting rifle, duffel bag, and an issue of Tales of a Junktown Jerky Vendor. Walter and Whiplash can be found in the next room. The gift shop key found on Walter will unlock the safe in the room as well as the door to the gift shop. Additionally, Big Jim, a unique pipe wrench can be found next to a toolbox. There is a Vault-Tec Lunchbox in the corner next to a bottlecap mine.

To the east is a makeshift raider tower, also unmarked.
