[[Image:Ice Ring Island.jpg|left]]The '''Ice Ring Isle''' is an island in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' where the [[Iron Boots]] are located. The [[Fire Arrows]] are needed to unfreeze the [[Freezard]]-looking facade upon the island in order to set foot on its cold surfaces without freezing. Upon melting the ice upon the facade, Link will have 5 minutes to complete the island's challenge before it freezes itself again. After jumping from ice block to ice block, and skittering across a narrow strip of ice, [[Link]] will drop into a cave within the rocky facade of the isle. Link must then transverse two slippery slides before achieving the isle's prize, the Iron Boots.

The {{Term/Store|Ice Ring Isle||Series, TWW, TWWHD}} is an island in {{TWW}}.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 260}}</ref> It is the location of the [[Iron Boots#The Wind Waker|iron boots]], and is explored in a similar way the [[Fire Mountain]] is. The cold island is located one square west of [[Forest Haven]].


Upon receiving the Iron Boots, the 5-minute timer will stop, and Link can forever traverse the Ice Ring Isle at his leisure.

Within the main cavern and after getting the Iron Boots, a small cavern located nearby opens and Link, upon dropping in, will find a cryogenic cavern filled with enemies and [[Rupee]]s.
The island is, at first, so cold that no one can enter without freezing. The [[Fire Arrow]]s are needed to unfreeze the [[Freezard]]-shaped facade upon the island in order to set foot on its cold surfaces without freezing. After warming the [[ice]] upon the facade, Link will have five minutes to complete the island's challenge before the island freezes over again. If Link is still on the island when the time elapses, he will instantly be frozen and re-spawn back on the [[King of Red Lions]], having to use another Fire Arrow to try again. After jumping from {{Term|TWWHD|Iceberg|link}} to {{Term|TWWHD|Iceberg}}, and skittering across a narrow strip of ice, [[Link]] will drop into a cave within the rocky facade of the isle. Link must then transverse two slippery slides while avoiding (or beating) [[Keese]] before achieving the isle's prize, the Iron Boots. Should Link fall below into the water, he will have to climb his way back up to the slides and try again, wasting some time to complete the challenge.
 
Upon receiving the Iron Boots, the five-minute timer will immediately stop, and Link can forever safely traverse the Ice Ring Isle at his leisure.
 
Within the main cavern and after getting the Iron Boots, a small cavern located behind a strong gust of wind can be accessed after Link acquires the Iron Boots. Upon dropping in, he will find a cryogenic cavern filled with enemies and [[Rupee]]s. Interestingly, when Link exits, he is brought back to the isle's entrance, not the cavern's entrance, seemingly avoid being blown away by the strong wind gust.


Link can also obtain a [[Treasure Chart]] by shooting the treasure chest outside covered in ice with a Fire Arrow. This will allow him to retrieve Treasure Chart #36.

==Trivia==
*This Mini-Dungeon is similar to and may have been inspired by the {{Term|OoT3D|Ice Cavern|link}} from {{OoT}}, as both are accessed by jumping across Ice floes, both center around ice, and both hold the [[Iron Boots]]. They both also have an easier way to get back to the entrance with the Iron Boots.
*This is one of the Islands where the [[Fishman]] tells Link to travel to the [[Mother and Child Isles]] to receive the power to use Fire and Ice Arrows. Fittingly, the Fire Mountain is the other Island where this happens.
