Half-Life: Blue Shift Hints
I made it to the Drainage Canal. Where to now?
1 of 5: Well, you could drop down into the drainage. It isn't toxic and won't hurt you.
2 of 5: You can get to a nonworking little lift and some grinder things that way.
3 of 5: Or you can get on the catwalk and head left at the Drainage Canal sign. That'll get you to a long ladder that's in the shadows and hard to see. You have to jump to it to climb it.
4 of 5: Or you can head right at the sign and go through a door to get to a catwalks-and-ladders area.
5 of 5: I suggest you do the catwalks-and-ladders area first, though it isn't absolutely necessary.
