So, to kick things off, head towards the Silver Lake Boathouse (check the map in the screenshot if you're not sure where to go.

When you get there you should see two things - a large boathouse down on the water's edge and a small outhouse-style hut on a hill overlooking the lake. You should also be able to see a zipline connecting the boathouse to a smaller hunt just up said hill.

To start, you'll need to head down to the boathouse, enter the water and swim around its left-hand side to reach the front of the boathouse.

When you reach the front, swim through gap and you'll enter the interior of the boathouse. Climb up onto the jetty on the right and you'll see a yellow switch box on the wall. Flip the switch, the leave the boathouse by the now unlocked door. Now for the next phase of the Prepper Stash.

Now you need to run up the hill to the small hut and turn the yellow wheel to the left of the structure. This will drain the water from inside the bunker beneath you. Now open the hatch beside you, descend the stairs and you'll enter the bunker itself.

All you need to do now is collect the goodies contained therein. Be sure to grab the cash (it'll be in piles of notes, so pick them up before you leave), as well as grabbing any extra ammunition or supplies (such as resources for explosives and Homeopathics).
