Hamilton's Hideaway

 is a small cave in the side of a cliff face in the Capital Wasteland.

This underground complex appears to be an abandoned military or medical research facility. It is mentioned by Sheriff Evan King in Arefu as a possible location of The Family as part of the Blood Ties quest.

Unmarked quest: Caching in with Three Dog
This is the area associated with the quest Caching in with Three Dog.

The cache is behind a locked cell door in the northwestern-most area, behind some rubble. It can only be opened with the key that is given to you by Three Dog.

Location

 * Hamilton's Hideaway be can easily found by traveling NE of Arefu into the river bed and following the cliff's rock until you find the entrance.
 * It's just north of Moonbeam Outdoor Cinema and just southeast of Northwest Seneca Station.

Enemies
The cave itself is populated with variants of Radscorpions, Radroaches, two, sometimes three Raiders and has also been know to have a Giant Radscorpion near or outside the raider hideout.


 * Some of these enemies will be dead when you find them, because Radscorpions and Raiders will fight each other. Also, because the cave is quite dark in most places, even a character with very low sneak skill can easily pick off enemies from afar with Sneak-Attack Critical Hits.
 * Be careful when exiting this cave if you did not fast-travel to this location. There might be a large group of enemies waiting for you outside.
 * Sometimes 3 dead wastelander bodies that may have spawned alive will appear.
 * At higher levels with Broken Steel installed, an Albino Radscorpion may be encountered here.

Scavenger
Just west of Hamilton's Hideaway, in line towards Arefu map marker, is a small metal shack with a Scavenger.

Notable Loot

 * Duck and Cover! - on the counter in the room with the Raiders along with Cherry Bombs.
 * Nuka-Cola Quantum - in the same room as above.
 * Bottlecap Mine - in the east room on a workbench.
