Embarking on your journey in Schedule 1? Your first mission from Uncle Nelson involves tracking down three crucial hidden stash locations to kickstart your operations in Hyland Point. Here at Digital Tech Explorer, we know some objectives can be tricky – especially locating the infamous Canal Stash. This guide by TechTalesLeo will show you exactly where to look.
Canal Stash Location in Schedule 1
After leaving your RV and reaching the Payphone near the Hyland Auto Shop, Uncle Nelson will inform you about these three initial stashes. To find the Canal Stash, head right from the payphone. Continue until you see a Gas Mart rate chart; nearby, you’ll find the bridge.
Carefully jump down from the left side of the bridge into the canal below. Once in the canal, look along the back wall. You’re searching for a small black locker marked distinctly with an X. Interact with this hidden stash and drag the cash into your inventory.
Finding the Other Stash Locations
Once you’ve secured the cash from the Canal Stash, Uncle Nelson needs you to find the remaining two spots. From the canal, make your way back up to street level. The other locations are behind the Town Hall Fountain and behind the Supermarket.
- Town Hall Fountain Stash: Go up the bridge again and head towards the large fountain situated directly in front of the Town Hall. The second stash is hidden behind this fountain.
- Supermarket Stash: Locate the Supermarket, which is on the right side of the road relative to your position facing the Town Hall (or near the bridge). Go behind the Supermarket building to find the final stash and collect the last bit of starting money.
Starting Your Empire
After successfully collecting the money from all three stashes, Uncle Nelson instructs you to return to the RV. However, upon your return, the RV is destroyed in an explosion orchestrated by a rival cartel. They issue a stark warning about attempting to establish operations in the city. This dramatic event marks the end of the initial setup phase and thrusts you into the main objective: building your own formidable drug empire from the ground up.
The Importance of Stashes
This initial quest serves as a vital tutorial, teaching you the critical skill of locating these hidden spots. These stashes remain fundamentally important throughout the game. They are used for various essential activities, such as retrieving supplies ordered via dead drops or making secure payments to your suppliers. Learning to find and utilize stashes efficiently across Hyland Point is crucial for growing a successful drug empire and minimizing unwanted attention from the cops.
| Stash Function | Description |
|---|---|
| Dead Drops | Used to retrieve supplies and items ordered discreetly. |
| Supplier Payments | A secure method for paying back your suppliers without direct contact. |
Mastering the locations and uses of these hidden points early on provides a solid foundation for your future operations.
