Furnace of the Gods - River of Molten Gold (Continued)
In the last section, you explored the area below the golden waterfall then climbed up onto this elevated walkway and followed it to the upper end.
Climb the dark gray rock formation and continue forward, keeping the golden river on Lara's left.
On the right is a dark pit containing a box of flares (27). Drop in, grab them, and climb back out.
Continue uphill with the river still on Lara's left. A little farther along, also on the right, there's another pit with a small medi pack (28).
After getting these items, return to the edge, where the gray rocks meet the golden river. Turn left and head back the way you came, keeping the the river on your right.
When you come to the end of this ledge, above the jumble of rocks you climbed to get up here, jump up onto the tall, flat-topped block on the left. Then pull up onto the taller block above it.
Roll and take a running jump to the next ledge, which juts out of the cavern wall above the rocks where you just were. (You can make it with or without grabbing.)
Cross that ledge and take another running jump to grab the next ledge, directly ahead.
Pull up, then walk forward along the cave wall.
At end of the ledge, turn left to face the wall, hop back, and hang from the edge. Traverse to the right corner before letting go. The square block below is a little higher on the right, so if you drop down there, Lara won't lose any health. Hop down into the pit on the right to get more flares (29).
Turn around so the golden river is on Lara's right and climb out of the pit.
Walk up the slope to the highest point. Jump straight up to grab the jutting ledge above and pull up.
Cross to the far left corner to find some shotgun shells (30).
Grab them, turn around, and return to the edge of the ledge overlooking the golden river. Take a running jump onto the freestanding pillar with the M16 clips (31).
Pick up the ammo and shoot a crow (24) that flies in from downstream.
Then take another running jump to the ledge on the far side of the river (above where you found the small medi pack and flares earlier).
Another crow (25) approaches from below on the right. Kill it.
DARK MODE: I plan to add optional dark mode for these pages, but my current priority is updating the walkthroughs. Meanwhile, may I suggest a reputable dark mode browser extension, such as Dark Reader? (Download only from trusted sites, like darkreader.org or your browser's official add-on/extension site.)
