The level follows the [[John-117|Master Chief]] on a mission to reach [[Installation 04|Halo]]'s [[Control Room (Installation 04)|Control Room]].

The Covenant are deployed in greater numbers and in a more superior force than previously seen in the game, using [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraiths]], [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost|Ghosts]] and [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]]. The majority of the level is set in a snowy, outdoor environment. Although the level seems to be natural, there are networks of tunnels and [[elevator]]s built by the [[Forerunner]]s that connect sections of the constructs into the Control Room. | ||
The level is known for its variety and well roundness. It allows the player to use every weapon and vehicle in the game (except the [[M90 shotgun|shotgun]]), and is the only level in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' that allows the Master Chief to use a [[M808B Main Battle Tank|Scorpion tank]]. Although the level is famous for its snowy outdoor battles and large bridges, there are also a variety of indoor skirmishes, including standoffs with [[Sangheili Zealot]]s. There is a mix of vehicle, long-range, and close quarters combat. The player is assisted by a handful of [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] after their [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican]] crashes, but the level is mostly a solitary experience. | The level is known for its variety and well roundness.
