Black Bear Lodge

The Black Bear lodge is a location in the Toxic Valley region of Appalachia in 2102.

Background
Black Bear Lodge was owned by Carl and Westley Addington, two wealthy brothers who used the lodge while hunting and rented out the spare rooms to hunters. During the season, various hunting-related events were held for guests, including squirrel shooting lessons for children and a hunting tournament. This hunting tournament has persisted post-War, with the Huntmaster continuing to assign tournament targets to any passing hunters.

After one hunting season, Westley Addington lamented the boredom of hunting the same prey every year. To alleviate this boredom, he proposed that they begin hunting humans instead, claiming that they would be protected from any reprisal by their extensive wealth. The human remains found in the basement of the building suggest that this endeavor was successful for at least one season.

Layout
Black Bear Lodge is a hunting lodge on the north edge of what used to be Grafton Lake. There is a parking lot in front of the building which contains several cars. There is also a shed to the northwest of the lodge which contains a power armor chassis and a cooking station. The building itself has three floors and a basement with an entrance on the first and second floor. The entrance on the second floor was likely the main entrance in pre-War times, as the Black Bear Lodge checkin terminal sits on a desk by this door. The trophy heads of various creatures are mounted on the walls throughout the lodge.

The first floor houses the lodge's bar which contains a grand piano and a pool table. There is a locked (Picklock 2) safe behind the bar, as well as a beer hat and chef hat. There are two flights of stairs on this level, one leading up to the second floor and one leading down to the basement.

The second floor contains a living area and kitchen. The kitchen contains several packages of pre-War food and cooking equipment. There are stairs here leading up to the third floor and down to the first floor.

The floor of the third level is mostly destroyed and makeshift planks form a precarious walkway which can be used to traverse the level. There are a few bedrooms still barely intact, one of which can only be accessed via the outside. A chem box and a locked (Picklock 0) suitcase can be found on this floor.

The basement houses the office where the Huntmaster is located. This office also contains a steamer trunk and another locked (Picklock 2) safe. There is an ammunition vending machine just outside this office. The basement also contains a brewing station and a separate workshop with bathtubs full of human remains, potential remnants of the time when the hunters who stayed in the lodge sought out more exotic prey.

Notable loot

 * The Addington's Dangerous Game - Holotape, can be found in the basement.
 * Random bobblehead - In the basement, in the furthest room from the stairs.
 * Random magazine - In the attic (accessed via the outside), next to a wooden crate.
 * A set of power armor is located in the small red shed.
