Death Mountain Summit is a location from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. As its name implies, it is the summit of Death Mountain. Link can travel to Death Mountain Summit after receiving the Bomb Bag from within Dodongo's Cavern, but he is first advised to do so by Darunia after he slays King Dodongo. The trail leading to Death Mountain Summit is extremely dangerous; Boulders fly out of Death Mountain, an active volcano, and land upon the trail leading to the summit. Because of this, Link must purchase the Hylian Shield from the Bazaar in Hyrule Castle Town if he hopes to reach the mountain top in one piece. With the large, metal shield, Link can effectively protect himself from the flying rubble, and reach the summit.
