The Last-Frost Cavern is a cave in Pikmin 4, located in the Sun-Speckled Terrace. As it appears out in the open on a path the player will walk on as they explore the area, it is likely this is the first cave the player will explore, though it is technically not required for progression. It has a single sublevel where 10 Ice Pikmin can be found (though only 5 on subsequent visits). Because of its placement, it's likely that this is where the player will first discover Ice Pikmin. This cave has  × 190 worth of treasure.

How to reach

After continuing down the path from the first base and breaking down the first dirt wall, the cave's entrance will be directly in front of you. Because of its short length, it's recommended you enter it as soon as you discover it.

Notes

Olimar's Voyage Log

“I entered a cave to look for S.S Dolphin parts and found a creature that defies the logic of space! it further surprised me by expelling frigid-cold air. Imagine if there were Pikmin that had been acclimatized to that cold air... This planet's ecosystem is full of mysteries.”

Sublevel 1

Map of the sublevel.

• Treasures:
  •  Director of Destiny
  •  Refreshing Goo

• Enemies:
  •  Female Sheargrub × 4
  •  Male Sheargrub × 2
  •  Snowy Blowhog × 1 (drops 1 raw material)

• Obstacles:
  •  Breakable pot × 9 (contain 4 nectar, 5 Ice Pikmin, and 3 raw material)
  •  Hydro jelly × 2 (contain 5 raw material)
  •  Paper bag × 1 (10 weight)

• Wild Pikmin:
  •  Ice Pikmin × 10 (5 fighting the Snowy Blowhog, 5 more in pots)

• Others:
  •  Castaway × 1
  •  Flarlic × 1 (partially buried)
  •  Raw material × 19 (pile of 10 and 9 more from other sources)

Being one of the first caves in the game, this sublevel is relatively simple. Destroy the breakable pots with a rush to find some nectar and collect any treasures you find. Defeat the Snowy Blowhog nearby to discover Ice Pikmin and collect the Refreshing Goo and Flarlic in the next room. You can lower the paper bag to unlock a shortcut to carry items quicker. Use Ice Pikmin to freeze and destroy the hydro jelly blocking the path towards the castaway and the exit.
