the cart to be pulled up over a rise. The cart will drop down and
jump over a break. The tracks will head up and to then turn to the
right. The tracks will drop down and turn to the right once more and
drop further down. Brake slightly as Lara descends this slope to avoid
skipping the tracks and smashing into the ice wall as the tracks turn
to the left ahead. Do not over-brake to allow the cart to drop down
and clear another break in the tracks. When Lara rounds the next turn
to the right, swing the wrench to stop the cart. Hop out of the cart and reverse roll. Lara can try to kill the halfbreed (6) but the flamethrower (7) will likely have gotten it first3.

Reverse roll and run forward to slide to the ground. Run forward until Lara comes to a slope down. Turn around and slide down the ramp backwards, and grab the bottom edge. Shimmy to the left and release to minimize the amount of damage Lara takes, when she drops down to the ledge below. Turn right and walk forward. Turn right again to locate a tunnel that leads off to the right. Take a step forward, but don't enter the tunnel. Turn right and walk forward and aim Lara slightly further to the right. Take a hop backwards into the tunnel and alert a mutant (8). Immediately run forward and to the left, and jump across the pit to a ledge. The mutant will chase Lara and fall to the ledge below and eventually to the bottom of the pit. Turn and face away from the ledge and crouch down. Have Lara lower herself down the ledge to safety drop to the lower ledge. Turn right and walk along the ledge and run off the right side of the ledge near the end to drop to a slope below4. Slide down the slope backwards and grab the edge to safety drop to the ledge below. Release and drop to a ledge below. Turn left and climb up into a crawlspace. Draw weapons and crawl forward. Kill the halfbreed (9) below from inside the crawlspace. When the halfbreed is dead, crawl backwards and have Lara lower herself over the edge. Shimmy left until Lara reaches the end of the crevice. Release and immediately grab the ledge below. Shimmy back to the right until Lara reaches the other end of the second crevice and release to land on a ledge below. Turn left and draw pistols. Kill the mutant that fell down here from above and kill another halfbreed (10) that's crawling around. When both are dead, turn right and side step to the other side of the ledge. Jump and grab the crevice and shimmy to the left. When the crevice widens pull up and crawl forward. When the next halfbreed (11) shows itself, quickly crawl backwards and have Lara hang off the edge of the crevice to avoid its poisonous breath. Pull up when it moves away, draw weapons and fire a few shots, and then quickly hang off the edge of the crevice. Repeat until the halfbreed is dead. When the halfbreed is dead, crawl forward until Lara can stand. Run forward and turn left and rush forward into the next room. Run forward and to the right, between to mounds of ice, to the pool. Rush around the scaffolding past the RX flamethrower (12) and turn right to try to kill the halfbreed (13) before he kills it. Turn left and run out between two mounds of ice and kill another halfbreed (14). Reverse roll and run forward to the pool and turn left. Run forward and kill the third halfbreed (15) in this room. In order to keep the flamethrower alive but yet beat him to all the halfbreeds, Lara will likely need to use the Desert Eagle pistol. Otherwise, Lara can simply kill the flamethrower first. |

cavern. Turn left and run forward onto the mound of ice. Turn left
again and walk to the top of this mound of ice. Aim Lara at the flat
part of the next mound of ice and take a running jump to it. The next
jump is tricky because there isn't enough room to perform a normal run
up. Run forward along the long narrow ice ledge and turn right when
Lara nears the end. Take a running jump and grab to reach the long
flat ice ledge ahead. Pull up and walk forward to the far end of this
ledge. Take a hop backwards and take a running jump off of the corner

Run to the end of the tunnel and safety drop to the tracks below. Lara will slide down the tracks, so run forward and follow the tracks as they wind right and then back to the left. Run to the mine cart and climb inside. Ride the cart along the tracks as the wind to the right, then left, and then up a hill. Apply the brakes a little as Lara goes down the first slope but not too much because Lara needs enough speed to jump across a small gap. When Lara reaches the next switch, swing the wrench to switch the tracks and the cart will turn right, avoiding the dead end. After the bend the cart will drop and jump over another break in the tracks. Then duck under two beams and the cart will turn to the left. Apply the breaks hard as the cart rolls back to the right. When the cart comes to a stop where it started, exit the mine cart on the left side. |
