THE QUEST OF GOLD 1 - CANADIAN FOREST
Level by Thibault
Chatelus (TC 14)
Walkthrough by Dutchy
The Land Rover got
engine trouble, so you’ll have to go on foot. Turn E from where you stand and
look under the first tree behind the small rocks to find the Uzis, get
them by crawling to them. Proceed E and follow to a narrow path between to
sloped ledges, a Bear comes around the corner, get up onto the R hand
sloped ledge and shoot it. Follow the path up a cave and watch out for those
Icicles. A Bold Eagle attacks when coming out of the cave, quickly stand
backwards in the L hand SE corner and shoot it, it can’t harm you from here. Go
on following the trail to where another Bear attacks, just after that
you can climb into the L hand CS in the corner behind the tree. Follow the CS
to a small cave where another passage leads you to the Mine Canyon.
The Mine Canyon.
2 Bold Eagles attack. Shoot them
from standing in a corner and see the deep canyon with the railway tracks.
There are some buildings in the E cave, but first we go W. Hop to the slope
there and go up to the Power Site. 2 Baddies stand guard behind the
Cabana, get some Ammo from one of them and have a look around, you can
go in 3 directions from here.
Cabana square.
N route:
Go into the next
forest area and shoot the Bold Eagle, a Bear a bit further, climb
over the ridge to the L and find a ˝ MP up in the SW corner of the
forest. Look in the trench (NW) behind the ridge you climbed for Secret#1,
a pile of Ammo, then go over the ridge in the E to find another ˝ MP in
the SE corner of the forest. Go on to the N and shoot your next Bold Eagle,
watch out for the pit after you went up the slope where you had to jmp up.
Runjmp over the pit and proceed to an old corroded building where a Baddy
will open fire, go around the L side of the building and have a look inside to
spot the Valve wheel, you’ll have to collect later after you got the Crowbar.
The Fuse.
Find the passage with
the overhead piping in the E and follow to the end to come to a cave with a
snow hill in the centre, shoot a Bold Eagle and a Bear and go
down, look around for a ˝ MP L and climb the block with the tree SE,
runjmp onto the snow hill and shoot the box to get the Fuse from it. Go
back through the passage NW and follow the path back, all the way to…
Cabana square.
W route:
Go W past the Cabana
and into the Ice cave there. Shoot the Bear and go on into the SW corner
where a wide opening gives access to a deep cave with a frozen lake, drop/hang
from the edge and go shimmy R to where you can drop/grab a lower crack, go R
and drop onto the pillar in the dark corner, roll and runjmp/grab to the pillar
W. Enter the CS and follow to another cave with a switch in the E. that will
drain the lake in the deep cave, get the Flares on your way out and
crawl back to the deep cave, drop from the side of the pillar and then down
into the dry lake.
Head N and shoot the 3
Bold Eagles and come to a dark pit with Ice ledges, jmp over to the other
side and from the white ledge a standjmp/grab into the opening with the door,
go in and shoot the Baddy. Find the Shotgun on the floor and some
Ammo behind the table next to the entrance and most important the Cabana
Key on the work bench. Head back over the Ice ledges and be careful, there
are 2 Bears running around in the next cave, try to shoot them from the
ledge or just hop in and mingle. Go S and into the dry lake, R and climb up in
the corner, there’s a ladder near the tree and when upstairs again follow the
cave back to…
Cabana square.
Go E and along the R
side past the Cabana to the next corroded structure, till you are at a crevice
in the S wall
S route:
Climb up in the
crevice in the rock wall and shoot the 2 Bears down in the next cave,
drop onto the lower ledge and head to the ladder NE where you can go down to a
lower passage, follow to an area with a Bear and go to the SE corner
passage to the tracks in the Mine Canyon, go onto the track and head S. To the
R is a small door, open it and shoot the Baddy. Go to the L and into the lower
tunnel at the red barred fence open the trapdoor on the other side and climb up
to place the Fuse in the NW corner of the generator. A gate opens in the N side
of the Canyon, Get the ˝ MP from the N side of the room and head back
through the tunnel, climb up at the most L (NW) corner at that red barred fence
and go out to the Canyon. Shoot the Bear there and head carefully N over
the track, it’s damaged. Standjmp from one step back from the edge and a runjmp
to the next part of the track and go up to the Mine cart. Shoot the 2
Baddies down on the tracks while you slide down and pick up the Secondary
Complex Key one of them drops. E are some buildings we will visit alter to get
the 2 Valve wheels. Head back S (you can go over the snowy side of the track
and jmp back to where the Mine cart is) and up to the Canyon, to the S over the
damaged part and into the passage R of the S cave, to get back (shoot another Bear)
to the passage that leads to the ladder up to the cave at the…
Cabana square.
The Secondary Complex.
Head E and jmp over
the corner of the Canyon to the ledge where you shot the Eagles, look for the
snowy ledge with the ladder on the E side of the Canyon and runjmp over to it,
climb up and go in the building, shoot the 2 Baddies and go to the caged
off area S, get the Ammo from the work bench and open the door in the
back with the key you have, go in and shoot the next Baddy. Get his Ammo
and look for the box to shoot to the R, inside is more Ammo, another Baddy
shows up and asks for the same treatment as the others.
Follow the passage to
a green area and head up to the SE door, inside you have to shoot the Baddy
and open the N door, the E one comes later after you’ve collected the 4 Valve
wheels needed in that room. Go E to the last room and get the Crowbar
from the desk and head back to the green area, up into the other building W and
coming out of that passage L at the steel fence. Follow to where you can climb
a ridge overlooking the canyon and from the SW tree you can do a curved runjmp
to a tree over the S cave. Go up to get Secret#2, all kinds of Ammo
and a MP.
The 4 Valve Wheels.
Climb down from the ledge at the tree to land on the lower track and
head N again, over the damaged part of the track and up to the N complex. Down
the slope and E, find the most E structure and get that 1st Valve wheel
from it, turn around and go into that W building, get the ˝ MP from the
work bench and the 2nd Valve wheel in the back. Coming out, you are
under fire so shoot that Baddy and head back to the Canyon, to the S and
into the R hand passage to get back to the Cabana. Go to the W side of the
Cabana, shoot the 2 Baddies and find the Keyhole L of the path to the
entrance, go in to get the 3rd Valve wheel. Go out and look for the ˝
MP dropped by the 2nd Baddy and go around the N side of the Cabana
to the E, L into the N route and follow the trail (watch out for that pit),

the S passage to the green area and up to the E building, open the E door and
place the 4 Valve Wheels on the axles, the go to the N room where you found the
Crowbar before and find the E door open.
Go in and
go to the door past the piping, follow the rooms to one with a desk, from which
you can get some Ammo, a Baddy opens fire, so go to the W room
fast and take him out, get the Gold Mine Key from the desk and a MP
from the box, shoot more Baddies and head back to the green area,
through the passage to the fence and L there to the ridge where you jmped to
the secret before, from the lowest part of the ridge, you can just run down
onto a sloped ledge and slide to the track below, enter the S cave and look to
the L for a Control panel that needs a Key. The S gate to the Mine opens, shoot
the Baddies and go down to dig some Gold…
End of a nice level.
