Cave entrance
Proceed to walk forward and follow the tracks in the snow; pay close attention to the vertical openings on the walls to the sides. Darts shoot from these openings as soon as you pass them, but you can dodge them easily by running and jumping forward at the same time (make sure you do not stop running because one pause can make you get hit by one). Continue to go forward until you come upon an intersection; take a right here and pass the above opening, instead going to the far right corner with a small sloped rock.

Secret #1: This pick-up is entirely optional and is not required, so if you do not want the pick-up located here just go back to the opening you passed before. If you do want the pick-up (it's a simple Small Medpack), stand behind the sloped rock and grab the top (by pressing the action button) and pull up (by pressing forward). Lara will begin to slide down the slope; as soon as she's at the edge, jump and press the action button to grab hold of the opening above. Pull up and turn the corner to find the Small Medpack (you can also stand under the opening, do a back-flip, and then jump and grab the opening to reach the room). Once you have it, drop back down and return to the large opening you passed.

Back at the opening, begin to climb the various rocks (by pressing the action button) until you reach the very top. Proceed forward, draw your pistols (by pressing the draw weapons button), and quickly shoot (by pressing action) the bats that come toward you.

Secret #2: Before you go to the other side of the cave, you can pick up another secret that's nearby. Turn left at the intersection to enter a smaller room. In the far right corner is a small opening where the secret is; to get to it, simply press action while standing on the left side of the opening (where the snow bank is higher than the others) and pull up. Immediately draw your pistols and kill the bat that is waiting inside- once it's dead, collect the Small Medpack in the corner, drop down, and return back to the intersection.

Now go to the other side of the cave to reach an opening that leads to a room covered in foliage; step inside and drop through the opening in the far left corner, where a door switch lies. Pull it down (by pressing the action button) to open the nearby door and kill the bat that waits inside- once it's gone, climb up the blocks in the far left corner and pull into the opening. Follow the passage to find a room with two large wooden bridges.
