Tomb Raider Walkthrough Part 29 – Highway to Hell (Shantytown: South)
After the stop at the camp head over to the left and down the stairs. Move carefully as you can slip into the steam and fall into the pool of water at the bottom easily. Head to the Southern platform just after you have seen the men chasing after the Old man. Look to the West, near the GPS Cache's location, to find the final Effigy. Head over to the West, drop to the platform below. Continue to the South and go around the corner to find a barricaded doorway. Blast through it to find another Document (Mathias: Belief).
Drop down to the pool of … water after you have collected the Document and ripped down the Effigy. Head South into the nearby building. You will hear Grim yelling at the Solarii as they come after him. Take down those you can on the ladder then make your way on up it. This will trigger a cutscene with Lara attempting to get to Grim. Time for another big fight.
Stay in cover as much as possible. Turn to the North to be ready for the coming assault. If you are feeling lucky, use the shotgun to blast down a bundle of dynamite for a hidden trophy/achievement. For this part of the battle all they will do is run to the Alarm, sound it, and throw dynamite at you. Kill whoever goes for the Alarm quickly and pick off who you can of the sappers.
The second part of the battle starts with a cutscene of a Soldier running in and creating a Rope Bridge down to Lara's Location. Try to gun down 10 of the Soldiers as they come at you for another hidden trophy/achievement. Now you need to deal with the Sappers and the Soldiers. Any Soldier who gets close you should deal with using your Climbing Axe. As much as possible though gun them down before they get to you. Be sure to pay some mind to the Sappers and the man at the Alarm as well. Just keep at this part until the men fall back, saying they need reinforcements.
Another cutscene runs with Grim asking Lara to meet up with him in the tower. He explains the best way is to head around using the cargo hauling system they have. First through head over to the edge, North, of where you were just fighting. Drop down onto the pathway below. Head over to the left and you will find the Sixth GPS Cache sitting on the far side of a box there. Climb back up after that and go for the Zipline that leads up toward the Alarm. Once there break the Second Alarm. After that head to the right and drop down. You will find a Salvage Crate there. Now circle around the building to the Northern side where you can find a XP Crate.
Time for a little more collecting. Head over to the Western fence and look for the barricaded part of it. Blast through it with your shotgun then make for the bridge you see over to the left. Drop off the right-hand side of it in the middle to find the Seventh GPS cache sitting against the bridge. Head over to the left and look into the nearby shack. You will find the fifth relic of the area (Commander's Inro). Now head around the corner to find the stairs leading up. At the top go over to the right to find a large Salvage Cache. Loot it then turn to the North, going to the right of the white scrambling wall. You will find a barricaded section. Shoot it down with your shotgun and grab the Eighth GPS Cache. With the cache added to your collection head on up that wall to the next level.
