Half-Life 2 Hints
How can I get up to the dam facilities?
1 of 6: Examine the various rickety wooden structures that extend into the water just a little way past the gate.
2 of 6: One of them has a ladder on the side that you could climb up if you were just interested in exploring the dam area on foot (which is perfectly fine).
3 of 6: If you'd rather get the airboat up there, you know what you need to look for....
4 of 6: Another ramp!
5 of 6: The other wooden structure that's next to the one with the ladder looks like it might work as a ramp.
6 of 6: So drive the airboat over to where you can hit this ramp straight-on at full speed.
