I don't mod or map Halo, but from what I read from various sites is that Halo 2 for Vista comes with a map editor, but then again I don't know if that's what you're after or even if that's the version you have.
I think the other Halo versions require several different tools to make a custom map, I don't think there's a single dedicated level editor for those.

Here's some more info:

3DStudioMax: Creates the level geometry, the static map environment. Also used as a modeling tool for any 3D additions one may want to add to a map.

Blitzkrieg: Special exporter plugin for 3DSMax that allows it to export to .JMS format, Halo's format for 3D models.

Sapien: Places world objects (weapons, powerups, vehicles, player starts) and scenery (rocks, trees, other non-level-geometry objects).

Guerilla: Creates and edits data tags which define properties, shaders and behaviors for things like weapons, textures, and vehicles.

Tool: Makes it all happen. Takes all of your hard work and, if you present it correctly, pieces it together into one fine-looking map.
