Trap Notes
1 of 4: The first trap is a "grenade bouquet" trap. Its tripwire is stretched across the center of the tunnel, near the point where it begins to curve right.
2 of 4: If your Explosives skill is high enough, you could carefully walk over to where you can jump up and deactivate the bouquet, gaining three frag grenades.
3 of 4: Go into Sneak mode and sneak around the tripwire (or deacivate it), then start looking for three set frag mines.
4 of 4: Sneak carefully up to each frag mine, hitting the Activate key as soon as you're in range to deactivate and take the mine.
