Kuwaq Yaku – Howling Caves Challenge Tomb (part 1)

After making your way into the cave, as described in the main walkthrough, step out onto the wooden walkway...

...and dive into the cenote below. There's some salvage and a resource container on the bottom, and some gold ore embedded in the south wall below the surface. Take what you want. Then climb out on the ledge and continue through the cavern to the north.

Soon you'll come to a spike pit that Lara can't cross. Instead, climb up on the left and follow the path down and around to the far side of the pit.

Head to the left, past the fire, and down into the tomb proper.

When you step onto the slope leading down toward the doorway, Lara starts to slide.

Try to steer toward the middle of the ledge and just before the end...

...jump forward and latch onto the climbable rock formation ahead. If you miss the jump or don't manage to hang on, Lara falls into the pit below, breaks her leg, and gets eaten by wolves. Yikes!

Once you've managed to get a grip on the craggy wall, climb down as far as you can. Then rappel down as far as the cable will allow.

Swing back and forth to build momentum, then jump forward onto the ledge below.

Grab some supplies here, then jump to grab the handhold on the wall below the carved skulls. Climb to the right as far as you can...

...then jump and latch onto the rough wall beyond. Axe climb down to the bottom of the rough wall.

Then rappel down and drop to the floor.

Grab a few supplies here then crawl through the low, fume-filled tunnel into the next area.

Halfway through the tunnel, a wolf lunges out from an opening on the right and tries to nip at Lara. It doesn't hurt, except for the minor heart attack from the jump scare.

Beyond the tunnel is a cavern with a flat, open area down below. You can try and jump to grab the ledge on the other side of the gap, but even if you make the saving grab, the ledge breaks, and Lara falls to the ground.
