After successfully evacuating the upper area of the Crow's Nest base, [[John-117|SPARTAN-117]] finds himself in an underground garage containing multiple [[Warthog]]s and leads a group of Marines out of an underground tunnel.

He then leads the surviving marines towards the town of [[Voi]]. A [[D77H-TCI Pelican Dropship|Pelican]] drops a pair of Troop warthogs and one regular [[M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle|M12]] (with [[M41 LAAG]]). After fighting his way down the highway, through many Covenant troops, SPARTAN-117 breaches the barrier blocking the path leading to Voi and the ancient [[Forerunner]] [[Portal at Voi|artifact]], buried beneath the [[Earth]]'s surface. | ||

*It is possible to jump the gap in the bridge with a vehicle if you have a [[Gravity Lift]] handy.

An easier way to cross the gap is by bringing your Chopper as far forward as you can without falling off and then boosting. | *It is possible to jump the gap in the bridge with a vehicle if you have a [[Gravity Lift]] handy.
