Tracking down hidden collectibles in Red Dead Redemption 2 offers players some of the most memorable exploration challenges in the game. The quest for the mended treasure map leads players on a journey across different regions to piece together a unique set of clues. Understanding where to find the first piece of the map is essential to starting this rewarding hunt.
Locating the Hermit House at Manito Glade
The first part of the torn treasure map is hidden away in the far northeastern section of the map in New Hanover. Players must travel north of Annesburg until reaching a remote cabin located at Manito Glade. A hostile hermit lives in this isolated shack and will open fire on sight if approached.
To secure the map safely, prepare for a quick confrontation as soon as you arrive near the cabin. Defeating the hostile occupant allows you to explore the interior of the home freely. Inside, check the drawers near the nightstand to claim the first map piece alongside a rare shotgun.
Finding the Second Clue in West Elizabeth
With the initial map piece in your satchel, the next step requires tracking down the matching half to complete the diagram. Travel to the far western edge of the world map above Little Creek River in West Elizabeth. Here, another isolated shack houses an aggressive hermit woman surrounded by her guard dogs.
Approach the cabin carefully to manage the hostile encounter before stepping inside. Searching through the small wooden drawer near the bed reveals the second half of the torn map. Once combined, the two halves assemble into a completed map pointing directly toward the final reward location.
Uncovering the Final Treasure in New Austin
The completed map points toward a hidden cave located in New Austin near Rattlesnake Hollow. Because of story restrictions in earlier chapters, players generally need to reach the Epilogue before retrieving the final prize. Navigating into the small rocky opening reveals a hidden stash tucked away inside a wooden chest.
Inside the cave chest, players are rewarded with Otis Miller's Revolver along with a collection of rare photographs. This custom sidearm features distinct engravings and ivory handles, making it a valuable addition for collectors. Completing this hunt adds a unique piece of history to your outlaw equipment arsenal.
