In total, players will need the following items to build everything:
- 1 hammer
- 10 oak planks
- 2 iron bars
- 25 nails
- 1 tinderbox
- 2 logs
- 3 soft clay
- 1 bucket
- 2 ropes
- 5 planks

Rewards[]
After building every camp improvement, players can speak to Peter just west of the rowboat for a reward of five unidentified small fossils. Along with 50 Mining and 150 kudos, claiming the reward from Peter is required to enter the Volcanic Mine.
Soil digging[]
Within the camp, players can also, with the help of tools such as the trowel, rock pick, specimen brush, leather gloves and boots (which can all be found in a crate next to the fossil cleaning bench), dig up numulites and unidentified fossils by using the tools on soil found in the archaeological digs all around the camp.
