The Long Dark: Milton Deposit Box Keys Walkthrough

There are a few locked deposit boxes at the bank. One is unlocked as part of the story, but the rest are optional.

First, you need to gain access to the deposit boxes. They’re locked in the vault at the back of the bank, and Will won’t even attempt to unlock it without the combination.

To get the combination, you need the bank manager’s house key. It can be found in the top drawer of the office on your right when you first enter the bank. This key unlocks the house with the Canadian flag outside.

Once you’re in the bank manager’s house, search the bedside drawer on the right. You’ll find a piece of paper with the vault code. Then just head to the vault and unlock it. The combination locks in The Long Dark open by turning the dial counter-clockwise, clockwise, and then counter-clockwise. If you’ve forgotten the code, it’s 19-30-08.

Below is the map Grey Mother gives you for Milton. I’ve labelled each of the deposit keys in different colors, as well as a suggested path to said key in the matching color. For more detailed descriptions, look below.

Deposit Box #7
This key is in the below house of Milton. You’ll find it in a plastic container, under the bed.

Deposit Box #13
This key can be found on a corpse outside of Milton. Depart from Milton to the Barker Farm. Turn left at the wooden bridge across the frozen river and follow the river until you see this scene in front of you.

You’ll want to turn where the black arrow and go up the hill. There will be a dead body with a backpack lying nearby. Search the body for the bank deposit key.

Deposit Box #15
You’ll find this key during the story. It’s in Paradise Meadows farm. Check the main story walkthrough (Chapter 3: The Grey Mother) for more details.

Deposit Box #20
The key to this box is in the blue truck on the outskirts of Milton. You want to leave Milton as though going to the gas station, and veer right after leaving town. It’s the same path you take when going to the climbing area in Chapter 4. The key will be on the dashboard of the blue truck below.
