Climb the bottom right wall of the room with Ice and HiJump while also luring a crab to the next platform to be used to ascend the next wall. The trickiest part of the climb is getting past the final overhang. This can be done with an underwater wall jump if the crab is low, a precise crouch jump and down grab if it is higher, or a flatley jump off of the crab if it is higher still. Two crabs makes it significantly easier to lure one to the top - simply let one go ahead of Samus. For a faster setup, one crab may be used by perform the final jump as it is unfreezing so it starts moving upward. Then go to the lower ground a bit to the right, jump and aim down to lower the camera to lure the crab. Note: The hardest part of this climb is the pixel precision when jumping around a ledge. Too many pixels: left is a fall, right you clip through the crab, low you miss the jump and fall, high is a bonk or crab clip.

Upper Right Ledge Junction

Use the crab near the bottom right door. Only one spring ball jump is needed, it is to get up onto the flat platform. After the spring ball jump, if the crab did not follow, go to the lower ground a bit to the right, jump and aim down to lower the camera to lure the crab. Note: The hardest part of this climb is the pixel precision when jumping around a ledge. Too many pixels: left is a fall, right you clip through the crab, low you miss the jump and fall, high is a bonk or crab clip.

Top Right Door

Requires having already lured a crab to this location, likely from above the bottom right door. Freeze the crab very high before going to the ledge on the right, delay jumping so it thaws and moves up a bit while on screen, jump aim down to lower the camera and lure it more. Alternatively, using moonwalk and a flatley jump at the top can prevent needing the crab again. Note: The hardest part of this climb is the pixel precision when jumping around a ledge. Too many pixels: left is a fall, right you clip through the crab, low you miss the jump and fall, high is a bonk or crab clip.

Top Right Door

Requires having already lured a crab to this location, likely from above the bottom right door. Freeze the crab high before going to the ledge on the right, delay spring ball jumping so it thaws and moves up while on screen, jump aim down to lower the camera and lure it more. Freeze the crab again to use as a platform, approximately knee high. Jump on it and then jump to the platform above. Note: The hardest part of this climb is the pixel precision when jumping around a ledge. Too many pixels: left is a fall, right you clip through the crab, low you miss the jump and fall, high is a bonk or crab clip.
