Where Is My Turtle Friend? Firewatch Mystery Explained

Firewatch is a mystery game set in the Wyoming wilderness, where your only emotional connection is with the person on the other end of your handheld radio. The game features several encounters with woodland creatures, including a turtle that can be adopted as a pet. Players have reported several locations where the turtle can be found, including Jonesy Lake, the Thorofare Trail, and Five Mile Creek. However, some players have also reported difficulties in finding the turtle, even after multiple playthroughs.

The turtle can be found on a rock in Five Mile Creek

The turtle can be adopted as a pet and kept in a cardboard box "pen" inside the Lookout Station. It can be known by several names, including "Turt Reynolds" and "Shelly Duvall".

There are several other locations where players have found turtles, including the Aspen grove, the trailhead, and near a waterfall close to Cache 307.

It can also be found on a rock in Jonesy Lake

Jonesy Lake is an important location in Firewatch, and it can be found in the western part of the in-game map. It is the largest body of water in the game, and players often pass through this area en route to other locations.

On Day 1, players travel to Jonesy Lake to inspect some suspicious behaviour. When players reach the lake, they can walk along its shoreline to the north, where they will find a yellow supply cache (Cache 305). After opening the cache and copying the map information, players can continue a few feet north and look for a flat rock beneath a tree, close to the lake. Here, they may find a turtle sitting on the rock, which they can befriend and adopt as a pet.

The turtle can be known by several names, including "Turt Reynolds" and "Shelly Duvall". After finding and bringing the turtle to the tower, players will find a cardboard box where the turtle will likely be found inside.

It is worth noting that a turtle is not always guaranteed to be found at Jonesy Lake, and players may discover a turtle pet in other locations within the game.

The turtle can also be found in several locations, including Jonesy Lake and the Thorofare Trail southwest of Lookout Station where Henry first enters Two Forks. Another possible turtle sighting is on a rock, in Five Mile Creek, on the way to the girls' campground on Day Two, in the clearing near Cache 309 (just west by southwest) with two trees and a rock.

After finding a turtle and bringing it to the tower, the next day you will find a box (where the turtle is likely to be found inside). While leaving the tower, you will notice fencing around the base, where the turtle can also be kept.

It can be adopted and kept in a cardboard box in the player's tower

In the game Firewatch, set in the Wyoming wilderness, players can find and adopt a turtle as a pet. This turtle can be found in several locations, including Jonesy Lake and the Thorofare Trail. After finding the turtle, players can bring it back to their tower, where it will live in a cardboard box "pen".

To find the turtle, players can follow these steps:

• Head to Jonesy Lake, where there have been sightings of the turtle on a rock near the lake shoreline.
• Another possible sighting location is on Day 2, as you make your way to check the telephone wires. Go north from the cache box near the broken line, and the turtle may be sunning itself on top of a rock.
• On Day 1, after dealing with the girls at Jonesy Lake, head north to Cache 305. Near the cache is a brook; follow it to the water's edge, and you may find the turtle on a little rock in the shadow of a nearby tree.
• On Day 2, as you travel north towards Beartooth Point to inspect a communication line, keep to the right as you follow the trails. Before heading up to the utility line at the top of the hill, follow the path that curves to the right to locate a supply cache box. Open the cache to update your map, then turn around, and a turtle may be resting on a raised rock a few steps away.

Once you find the turtle, you can pick it up, report it to Delilah, and give it a name. Make sure to press Hold to adopt the turtle as your new pet companion. It will then be placed in your knapsack, and the next day, it will be living in a cardboard box in your tower.

The turtle can also be kept in a fenced area at the base of the tower.

It's important to note that a turtle is not always guaranteed at this location, and players have reported finding turtles in various other places, such as Jonesy Lake, the Aspen grove, and the Thorofare Trail. Once you find a turtle, you can pick it up, report it to Delilah, give it a name, and adopt it as your new pet companion.
