Ghost of Yotei contains 22 Yotei Six Camp locations. Finding and conquering all Yotei Six Camps unlocks the For the Living trophy.
These are the red enemy camps on the map. Simply defeat all enemies in the camp to conquer it. Some camps have a locked gate where you find the camp leader. To open the gates you must either kill all other enemies in the camp, or find a way to climb behind the locked gate.
Not all camps marked in red count towards the 22 Yotei Six Camps for the trophy. The ones that do count will show a reward in golden text when you scroll over them on the map (typically a New Technique). The ones that don’t count are related to some side quests, these are noted here at the end of each region. Every camp also contains an Altar of Reflection, you will spawn in front of it after liberating the camp. These give you skill points to learn new techniques. So by doing all 22 camps you automatically get 22 Altars of Reflection. Just remember to pray at the altars by swiping down on the Touchpad. The camps in Teshio Ridge also lead to Nine Tails’ Puzzle Boxes.
At the time of the game’s launch, the Yotei Six Camps can’t be reset. You may want to keep 1-2 large camps to farm kills for charm upgrades via checkpoint restart. You can also still find enemies in the open world after having cleared out the whole map (although in lesser numbers), so everything is still doable regardless.
None of the camps are missable, they can still be done after the story in free-roam.

This is a hidden enemy camp. It’s accessed through the Snow Drift Springs Shrine (named map location) in Crimson Forest. The door will be closed. You must use a torch to light the correct 3 foxes, as indicated by the fox statues on the little islands behind the lanterns. Start by picking up a torch from the braziers at the locked door. When facing the door, there are 3 foxes on the left and on the right. On the left row light the fox furthest left (the one sitting upright with a stick in its mouth). On the right row light the one furthest right (the one foxing up with a stick in its mouth). The third set of foxes is across from the door, must climb up the rock wall. There you find another brazier, the correct fox is the middle one that’s sitting down. If done correctly, the door will open. Head through and you’ll reach the Snow Drift Springs Hideout. Kill everyone there, then you automatically get a cutscene where you rescue a settler. Afterward you must solve one more fox puzzles with torches, at the end of the camp upstairs. Again the correct foxes are the ones sitting behind the lanterns on the little island. You must light the leftmost fox that’s facing forward, and the 2nd from the right that is crouching with its tail up. Then a rope appears, climb the ladder next to the foxes and go over the rope to reach the altar and puzzle box at the end of the camp.
13 – Snow’s Blight Hideout
This is a hidden enemy camp. In the west of Teshio Ridge region, enter the “Snow’s Blight Shrine” location, it will be marked on the map when you go near it. Clear out the enemies there, then untie the settler who they were holding hostage. You must solve the shrine puzzle to open the path to the hidden camp. On the left you must grab a torch and light two braziers, the correct two are the ones with a lit lantern above them. On the right you must turn the fox statues in the same direction as the stone foxes that are engraved in the wall above them. This will unlock the small fox statues on the pedestals. Carry both fox statues to the locked door. The door remains shut, but a little crawlspace opens up in the wall to the right of where you placed the foxes. Go through there to reach the enemy camp. You must clear out all enemies in the camp, then the main gate at the end of the camp opens up. Defeat the camp leader, then climb to the altar of reflection at the very end, and also pick up the puzzle box in front of the altar. Clearing the camp also completes the “Nameless Killer” bounty.
14 – Nakajima Ice Cave Hideout
Found in front of the Altar of Reflection in this enemy camp. This is a hidden enemy camp. It’s accessed through the “Nakajima Ice Cave” (named map location) in the north-west of Sarobetsu Lake. The gate will be locked. To open it, you must turn the two fox statues at the entrance. Turn the right fox to face to the right, and the left fox to face left (both facing away from the door). Then a crawlspace opens up in the wall. Go through there to enter a cave. In the cave you must do a jump and use a grappling hook mid-jump to pull yourself up the rope. It can be hard to see, just look up in the middle of the cave and you’ll see the R2 prompt mid-jump. From there keep climbing up, you’ll find another fox statue which you must turn twice to make ropes appears. Then climb over the ropes. There is another fox statue but you only need to interact with it once to make a ladder come down. Then climb up to reach the enemy camp. Clear out all enemies. Then on the back right corner of the camp you find two fox statues. Turn the left fox once so it faces right. Turn the right fox three times so it faces left (both foxes facing each other). Then a rope appears that leads to the altar at the end of the camp, and there’s also a puzzle box at the altar.
15 – Deserted Village
16 – Soya Port
17 – Cape Inari Hideout
Found in front of the Altar of Reflection in this enemy camp. This is a hidden enemy camp. It’s accessed through the “Cape Inari Shrine” (named map location) at the northernmost edge of the map. There you will find a locked gate. To open it you must light two fox lanterns with the “trident” icons on them. Start by squeezing through the gap to the right of the locked gate where a blue symbol is on the wall. This leads to a little cave room, immediately when you enter turn right to see a brazier, pick up the torch. Then light the fox statue in this room. Go back outside, squeeze through the gap to the left of the door in the mountain wall. Light the fox lantern with the “trident” icon in there too. Now you hear a clicking sound and an opening under the door opens. Go through it and you’ll reach more fox lanterns. Again pick up a torch and light the two foxes with the “trident” icon, one is at the cliff and one in the building (the lanterns with “!” icon will damage you). This releases a rope, go over it, jump to the wooden platform and climb up the rockholds on the wall. At the top you must climb up more rockholds (can be slightly hard to see because they are covered by snow). At the top you reach the enemy camp. Kill the enemies, then on the right side you find a broken bridge with a brazier and fox lantern next to it. Light this fox to release a rope and walk over it to the next mountain. Clear out the enemies there, then you can pick up another torch and light another fox lantern at the cliff. This releases the last rope, walk over it to reach the altar.
