Half-Life 2: Episode One Hints
Explosives Tip
1 of 4: You could use the pistol or RPG to shoot the first tripmine to blow it up, but why not use the gravity gun instead?
2 of 4: Use it to pull in the wooden crate that you can see through the red laser so that it detonates the tripmine for you.
3 of 4: Moving the crate also reveals the hidden hopper in the corner, so be ready to grab and reset it.
4 of 4: As for the second tripmine, you can look through the fence next to it to find a crate that you can pull into its beam.
