Barrow Lagoon Mystery Guide - The Ice Skater's Frozen Grave (RDR2)

Barrow Lagoon Mystery - The Ice Skater's Frozen Grave

SPOILER WARNING
This guide contains minor location spoilers. If you want to discover everything yourself, come back later.

LOCATION
Barrow Lagoon is a frozen lake in the northern part of the map (Ambarino). The cabin is at the north shore of the lake.

WHAT'S INSIDE THE CABIN
Inside the abandoned cabin you will find two important clues:

1. A Newspaper Scrap - Talks about a professional ice skater who was forced to retire due to a serious leg injury.
2. A Cigarette Card - "Felix Hawley". This confirms the injured skater was Felix Hawley.

THE DESECRATED GRAVE
Next to the cabin, someone has dug up the grave:

- The coffin is pulled out and open
- The corpse is missing its RIGHT LEG (the same leg mentioned in the injury)
- Written in red paint on the tombstone: "NO ICE IN HELL"

HIDDEN BONUS - THE HOLLOW TREE
On the south shore of the lake (across from the cabin), look for a hollow stump. Inside you'll find:

- A lockbox with some cash
- A Miracle Tonic
Some players use this location for the "Big Bet" treasure map as well.

MY THEORY
"No ice in hell" is a twisted version of a famous skating slogan ("There's ice in heaven"). Someone hated Felix Hawley so much that they dug up his grave, cut off his injured leg, and left that message. Pure revenge beyond the grave.
