*Before triggering the initial hunter encounter, it is possible to ride the first gondola directly to the first lake tower. The player must grenade jump to the tower immediately right of the gondola platform and simply jump onto the gondola from the tower. This will effectively skip all combat from the initial hunter encounter all the way to the interior of the first lake tower.
