The Bedroom Lock

Located in the Peak Province from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, the Snowpeak Ruins is a decrepit mansion, home to a couple of Yetis. Yeto lives here with his wife Yeta, but they only inhabit the front rooms and the bedroom. The vacant back rooms become home to the host of monsters that invaded the mansion after the second Mirror Shard came to rest there. The temple has three floors, with the predominant theme being ice.

The goal of the temple is to reach the Bedroom on the third floor, which contains a piece of the Twilight Mirror found by Yeto and given to his wife Yeta. The item obtained in the temple is the Ball and Chain after defeating the mini boss, Darkhammer.

The Bedroom Key

The ruins are explored in stages, as Yeta attempts to direct Link to the correct location of the Bedroom Key. Due to her current condition, her memory is poor, and she unintentionally misleads Link to find first the Ordon Pumpkin, then the Ordon Goat Cheese. These two items are used by Yeto to transform his Reekfish broth into the Superb Soup.

Many areas of the dungeon are clogged by large blocks of ice, which can only be broken using one of the cannons found within the dungeon (and subsequently the Ball and Chain). The main enemies encountered within Snowpeak Ruins are Freezards, Mini Freezards, Chilfos, White Wolfos and Ice Keese.

Trivia

Inside the ruins are many pictures similar to those from the ones in the Forest Temple in Ocarina of Time. In one room there is a painting of George Washington, along with other paintings that resemble the Poe Sisters from Ocarina of Time.^{[citation needed]}
