River of Sand

The River of Sand is a location from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It is the first of three challenges in the Haunted Wasteland. As its name suggests, the River of Sand is a hill of flowing sand. In order to successfully pass it, Link must either equip the Hover Boots to walk up the hill or use the Longshot to grapple to one of the three boxes at the top of the hill. If Link attempts to cross the River of Sand without the aforementioned methods, he will be sucked down into the sand.
