Notes:
- Because there's a huge dip in this room, you'll have to get from one side to the other without falling in (that's the easiest way, anyway). Going into Life Grove, this is easy. From the very edge of the entrance to the pit, perform a bomb ladder jump to get take the top branch (as shown above left). This is a relatively easy jump, but you have to make sure not to hit your head on the overhang. If you fall into the pit, you can bomb jump out, but it is very similar to the bomb jumping in Ventilation Shaft (as shown above right).
- If you're coming from Life Grove, it gets a little tricky. Because the entrance is much lower from this direction, you'll have to perform a triple bomb jump ladder as shown below left (only the double bomb jump part is actually a ladder). The Triple Bomb Jump Ladder isn't completely needed, but it's harder to get up from the right side, so you risk falling if you don't do it. If you fall in the pit from this direction, you can again bomb jump your way out (as shown below right). It's a little trickier to get out this way, as the exit is much higher.
