Use your pick to remove the bricks and go through the opening to see the ancient ruins. After another cut scene, activate Survival Instinct and check the glowing items in the area: The nearby pillar, the dial on the wall, the mural on the far wall up the small stairs, and another mural down the small pathway.Īt this mural, take a look at the stones to the right to find a secret path. When you slide into the small opening, keep going down the water-path. Go back the way you came and follow the water up the side of the hill. This goes to a side trail where you'll find an item box containing the Gilded Cross religious item. Then jump to the ledge above and go right on the path above. At the end of the path, climb up the rock wall and move right as far as possible. When you take control of Lara, walk left, along the edge of the cliff. The Lost TombĪnother cut scene throws you two weeks into the past. At the end of the path, jump to the ice wall across the gorge, then begin ascending again. Climb up and run down the path, jumping whenever a block of ice falls. Move quickly to the right and jump to the next ledge. It's important to jump as late as possible.Īfter sliding down the mountain, press X to grab hold of the cliff edge. If you jump too soon you won't make it, and if you jump too late, you'll fall. Climb up and wait until the last minute to jump over to the next platform below. Keep going up and to the right, and get ready to outrun an avalanche! Jump over the first gap and press X to steady yourself. Press X once more to ensure your footing is solid. When the icicles fall, jump across the new gap, and grab the ice on the far side. Then continue climbing up and to the right. When you've gone as far right as possible, jump up and grab onto the ice above. Jump up to the ledge above, then jump to the adjacent ledge on the right.

The camera angle shifts, but keep climbing until you can't go any higher. Inch towards the edge of the cliff, then jump onto one of the icicles and start climbing. Keep going up the mountain and through the tunnel that's ahead. When you can't go any further, jump over to your companion. When you can't go any higher, go left to avoid the icicles above, then leap across the gap to move towards your partner. Move slightly to the right as you climb in order to avoid some of the gaps in the wall. Jump across the second gap, then jump up to the top of the cliff.

Leap across the gap and press X again to grip tighter. Press X when prompted to catch yourself, then move right along the edge of the cliff.

When the ground below crumbles, you start falling down the mountain. A piece of ice breaks off, but you're fine. After the opening cut scene, go forwards and up the mountain as you slowly move across the icy cliff.
