How to find it
The entrance is at map coordinates -2433, -1819, in the cliff north of Gerudo Canyon Skyview Tower, behind the waterfall that pours out of Taafei Hill Cave above it. Look for the cave mouth at that spot; a Blupee or a ring of light often marks them.
Inside the cave
Wear Yiga armor and approach the door
Equip Yiga Clan armor before you walk up to the canyon door. The guard lets any Yiga member inside, so you can walk straight in without a fight. Without the full outfit the Blademaster refuses to deal with you.
Speak to the Yiga Blademaster
Inside, talk to the Blademaster. He starts The Yiga Clan Exam: take the Mighty Bananas he gives you to the five Yiga frog statues in Gerudo Canyon, then report back to him. The five statues are under the bridge near the station, on the cliff south of the station, atop Spectacle Rock beside a Stone Talus, inside Gerudo Canyon Mine, and inside Mount Nabooru Cave near its east exit. Once you return, he opens the door behind him: inside are chests holding a Ruby and an Eightfold Longblade (in good condition, unlike the decayed version found elsewhere), plus the Suariwak Shrine and its Light of Blessing. A narrow gap to the right of the chests leads to the cave’s Bubbulfrog, which you can shoot for a Bubbul Gem.
