Half-Life Hints
How do I get across the Lower Canal?
1 of 5: First off, either jump down into the water or take the door labeled "Lower Canal" to get down on the Lower Canal level.
2 of 5: There are two ways you can get across.
3 of 5: The first is that you can push a box into the water and jump from your side to the box and then from the box to the other side.
4 of 5: Or you can jump into the water and follow the current. Go through the pillars and turn right to find a ladder.
5 of 5: Take the ladder, heal yourself at the health station if you need to, and then go through the door. You will be on the other side.
