==Hyrule Castle and Death Mountain==
 +

Back-walk all the way to Hyrule Castle and you can make it into the Castle before the drawbridge closes, saving a lonely night fighting off Stalchildren in Hyrule Field.
 +
 +
Talk to Malon in the Market. Enter the Hyrule Castle area, leave it, then enter again to cause Malon to move to the place you want her to be. Talk to her again for the Weird Egg.
 +
 +
You only need to drag the first block and push it right to the very edge BEFORE it drops down into the gap below - then you can do a running jump and then jump-attack to make it across to the far side. Move the block as far as you can before the egg hatches if you have time.
 +
 +
Apparently, in the courtyard section, if you roll against the bottom wall and speed along to the far side, you can remain unseen all the way to the end hedge section, even if the guards are looking right at you. TSA's 4:57 video demonstrates this.
 +
 +
After the Zelda scenes, you have the option of collecting a second Bottle from Lon Lon Ranch. Currently, the advice is not to do this; the time it saves you in the [[Ice Cavern]] doesn't add up.
 +
 +
Head up the left-hand side of the steps leading to Kakariko Village. It's tempting to go diagonally but the next-area trigger plane runs all the way across the top.
 +
 +
Do Death Mountain, Goron City, etc.
 +
 +
Keep left while rolling through Darunia's throne room to avoid speaking to Darunia by accident... Also, don't be tempted to try to roll across that bit of carpet at the entrance!
 +
 +
Get the flame from Darunia's throne room and move it all the way to the Lost Woods bombs, one torch at a time. Usually you do this in four stages, but if you're really quick and back-walk, you can skip the first torch on the left after the throne room entrance and just go straight for the far torch on the right. The pot on the left on the stairs behind this torch has a Deku Stick in it: worth collecting (BEFORE you get hold of the flame and take it on up those stairs!).
 +
 +
In the Lost Woods (whose layout you should commit to memory) you'll find copious opportunity to back-walk and side-step at high speed.
 +
 +
Try to ignore the Deku Scrubs and keep rolling/running in the Sacred Forest Meadow.
 +
 +
It's reckoned that after the Sacred Forest Meadow, it's quicker to purposefully leave and re-enter the Lost Woods than to run directly to the Goron City entrance.
 +
 +
After talking to Darunia, you can collect that Deku Stick from the first pot on the left again.
 +
 +
After bombing [[Dodongo's Cavern]] open, it's faster to backflip over the small fence rather than going to the left and jumping off that ledge. Don't worry about falling damage as the destroyed rocks below you leave hearts behind which you can collect on your way in.
