Navigating the eerie corridors of Bright Falls in Alan Wake 2 presents players with numerous environmental puzzles and locked Cult Stashes. One of the most critical supply caches is located within the Sheriff Station during Saga Anderson's story. Securing the useful resources inside this box requires deciphering a subtle clue left behind in the station's basement.
Where to Find the Sheriff Station Cult Stash
Players can access the Bright Falls Sheriff Station stash late in the game after acquiring the Bolt Cutters. Head down into the basement area and make your way directly to the Evidence Room. Inside, you will find the locked Cult Stash sitting among secured cases and stored property.
Opening this particular container is essential because it supplies valuable ammunition and survival items needed for tough endgame encounters. Players looking to complete their full collection of hidden crates will also need this box to clear the region.
Deciphering the Evidence Room Lock Code
The lock puzzle relies on a visual clue drawn on a sheet of paper near the stash. The note features three simple geometric shapes: a single line, a triangle with an intersecting line, and a full hexagon.
To solve the combination, players must count the number of lines or distinct sides that make up each shape shown in order. The single line represents 1, the triangle figure consists of 4 lines, and the hexagon features 6 sides. Combining these numbers reveals the correct combination sequence of 1-4-6.
Unlocking the Box and Claiming Rewards
Input the combination 1-4-6 into the three-digit padlock to pop the latch open. Inside, Saga will find a generous stash of ammunition and medical supplies to stock up her inventory.
Successfully opening this final container in the station also brings players closer to earning the trophy for finding all Cult Stashes across Washington. Checking off every hidden crate ensures you are fully prepared for the supernatural horrors lurking in the Dark Presence's territory.
