Floria River Upstream Excavation

Floria River Upstream Excavation is a cave in Faron Grasslands, about 88 map units from Zonai Ruins. Caves like this one hide chests and a Bubbulfrog that drops a Bubbul Gem; trade the gems to Koltin in The Hunt for Bubbul Gems!

How to find it

The entrance is at map coordinates 809, -2971, near Zonai Ruins. Look for the cave mouth at that spot; a Blupee or a ring of light often marks them.

Inside the cave

Reach the entrance

Follow the waterfall ledge down to the excavation and head inside. A closed gate sits under a glowing charge point.

Connect the charge point

Drive a Stake into the wall beside the charge point, stack a cube on it, then use a Hover Stone to hold a second cube against the first. When the cubes touch the charge point, the circuit completes and the gate opens.

Take the Topaz

Walk through the opened gate to the chest and take the Topaz.

Shoot the Bubbulfrog

Drop into the dark chamber beyond, where the Bubbulfrog floats. Hit it with an arrow and collect the Bubbul Gem.

Entrance, chest and requirements

ChestBehind the gate; contains a Topaz
Bubbul GemOne Bubbulfrog in the chamber past the gate
EnemiesNone apart from the Bubbulfrog
RequirementsUltrahand; Stakes, cubes and a Hover Stone from the room; a bow

The gate is opened by linking the electric charge point above it to the object to the east. Place a Stake in the wall to the left of that object, stack the first cube on it, then drop a Hover Stone to the left of the stack and hit it so it floats and forms a platform for the second cube. Once the cubes touch, the gate opens. There is no shrine or Lightroot inside.
