Natla's Mines - Tracks with Barricades & Boulder Traps - Alternate Methods
If you accidentally trigger the boulder trap on the way to get the FIRST FUSE and manage to jump out of the way in time, you can still continue. Follow the elevated ledge down to where the boulder landed. Be careful not to fall into the lava pit on the left.
Face the wall so the boulder is on Lara's left. Step forward so Lara's chest is against the wall and then sidestep to the left as far as you can.
Adjust Lara's angle by turning slightly to the right (as as indicated by the dashed line beneath her feet). Then side flip to the left toward the boulder. With repeated side flips, you should be able to gradually squeeze her through the crack between the boulder and the wall...
...and into the doorway near the FIRST FUSE. Continue following the main walkthrough.

If that doesn't work for you, follow the elevated ledge back up to where the boulder originated (above and to the left of the wooden door). Enter the tunnel on the left...
...and follow it to an opening above the CAVE WITH BOARDED-UP ROOMS. Drop down...
...and return along the tracks through the wooden door. When you re-enter the trapped area, the boulder will have reset. Continue following the main walkthrough.
DARK MODE: Even with brightness adjusted, dark images on a light background can be hard to see. May I suggest a reputable dark mode browser extension, such as Dark Reader? (Download only from trusted sites, like darkreader.org or your browser's web store.)
