PostsAlong the way, you'll face treacherous and icy puzzles that complicate the journey. Thankfully, with a little help and guidance, you can navigate the way forward to seal the rift on Holy Mount Lanayru with Zelda!
Where To Find Conde
When you set out for the northernmost regions of the map, you'll need to come prepared with plenty of smoothies that provide ice resistance. The unforgiving cold will whittle away your health until there's nothing left, and you've got a long way to go before the storm lets up.
You can also use fiery echoes like Ignizol and a brazier to keep you warm!
As you pass by snowy monsters and work your way up the mountain, you'll meet Conde outside his home. He invites you into his home, where you'll get to learn more about him.
Make sure to interact with everything while you wait out the storm to learn more about how Conde ended up alone on the mountain. Conde will let you know when the coast is clear, heading out into the snow and digging a path into the cave for you.
Following Conde Into The Cave
Head into the cave Conde cleared. The room is filled with tall blocks of ice, so thaw them out with your echoes to reach the next room. The door can be found in the far right corner of the chamber.
Pass through to a chamber with two Ice Keese flying about. Defeat them and learn the echo if you wish, buy proceed through the door to the north.
The two passageways in the next chamber lead to Conde and a treasure chest. The room to the right will reward you if you can pass by several large snowballs that barrel towards you.
Bind Tri to them to use the snowballs as shields as you make your way up the ramp to collect the treasure chest.
Take the door to the north after thawing a path to it. Conde is just beyond, shoveling snow into a rift.
The Hebra Mountain Cave Rift
Talking with Conde will reveal that he's trying to seal up the rift, but it's not working. While he won't listen to reason, you can enter the chamber to the west and create an opening in the rift.

Enter the rift and search for Tris friends within. Finding them all will restore the rift, allowing Conde and you to proceed farther up the mountain in search of the major rift at the top.
Navigating The Ice Caves
Take the ladder upwards, then use Tri to move the blocks of ice or melt them to proceed forward. Fire slugs are perfect for climbing along the rock walls to melt more blocks of ice.
In the next area, giant snowballs threaten to crush you. Ascend the ladder and time your movements to avoid the crushing blows. Defeat the evil snowman in front of the second ladder, then climb into the room above.
You can test your luck by taking an alternative route to the west to grab some loot from a treasure chest!
Proceed outside to the next level of the mountain. Head to the west, moving carefully along the freezing cold pond to find another cave entrance. Make your way inside to start climbing higher.
Here the floor is breakable, and the monster flying around the room will drop bombs that shatter it. Defeat the monster quickly or bypass it using your echoes to climb up the icy platform at the far end of the chamber.
In the next room, there are plenty of powerful fans that will have you slipping across the fields of ice. Block them with boulders and carefully navigate across the ground to reach the other side of the cavern.
The Flying Tile echo can be useful here if you have trouble crossing the slippery floors. The Golden Sash can be just as useful!
Once in the adjacent chamber, the doors will lock and you'll need to defeat all the enemies to proceed. While two Ice Keese make an appearance, a Zol hides in the ice to the far right corner of the room.
Proceed through the door to the north to slay Freezard monsters, then take the passage to the west. A Moblin encased in ice waits for you, but you can pass right by it into the next room. Defeat the Boarblins here to take a ladder up to the next floor. Here, you'll need to navigate falling icicles and Ice Octoroks to reach a floating platform.
Hop into a pot to avoid the icy spouts that block your path so you won't freeze or take damage.
Once you're back outside, carefully dodge the falling snowballs. When you reach the rock wall, head east along the snow-covered path until you reach Conde.
Reaching The Peak Of Mount Lanayru
Walk through the icicles to the north, then head into the cave to the east. Inside, you'll need to carefully navigate the cavern as giant snowballs roll down the slopes. An Ice Octorok will try to strike you, so either slay it or climb over it.
Proceed along the rock walls to avoid the snowballs. Continue to the top of the chamber to reach the ladder. In the top chamber, there are two Temper Tweelus monsters.
Hurry past them to reach the outside once more, where you'll meet Conde again. This time, on the peak of the mountain, you'll be able to enter the rift.
The Holy Mount Lanayru Temple
Inside the Mount Lanayru Rift, you'll find the temperature-controlled temple. You'll need to use your wits to alter the ice around you to reach the inner chamber where you'll confront the dungeon's boss.

Many puzzles involve melting and freezing different areas around the temple. There are four floors to explore, and each one is filled with powerful monsters and slippery terrain.
Green Goo Boss Fight
The first boss you'll encounter is made of green goo. While it looks like a zol, it functions a bit differently. It absorbs the hot water from the spring and will separate into smaller versions of itself when the larger form is slain.

You'll need to be cautious and patient to defeat this monster. Once that's done, hurry on through the rest of the dungeon to find and obtain the big key.
Skorchill Boss Fight
Once you have the big key, you'll be able to confront Skorchill within the innermost chamber. This fight will test your abilities to heat things up and cool them down, as he'll swap between fire and ice.

After Skorchill is defeated, Tri will gather with their friends to restore the rift. You'll return outside afterwards with a few more might crystals, ready to take on another rift!
