If Cal actively uses his psychometry powers on too much of the basecamp's basic structure, he's liable to get some very unpleasant PTSD-invoking memories of the crash itself, as most of the basecamp's materials were salvaged from the crash site, so this would be the memory of strongest emotional resonance that would surface. If you would like more specific details around the crash, we're happy to provide those, but in general understand that the moment of the crash was a chaotic flurry of fire, smoke, and blood, given the damage to the Adamant and the mass death that occurred. Note that this applies only to the material used in the basecamp's construction, and not to the Adamant itself.
If his power were used on the clothing given to him by the locals, however, he'd get a happier memory — the clothing he wears was the shirt that its now-dead owner wore on the day that his daughter was born. He'll get the strong sense-memory of a father clutching his newborn child to his chest, complete with the smell of (cleaned up) baby head and the feeling of soft baby hair.
