'''Cool, Cool Mountain''' is in the main room of the castle, in the door on the left, below the door for [[Super Mario 64/Bob-omb Battlefield|Bob-omb Battlefield]]. 3 stars are required to access it.  The level is set on a snowy mountain, though be aware that you can fall off and die.
* Location: First floor. On the left side of the staircase, enter the door with a 3 on it, and jump into one of the three paintings.
* Description: A snowy mountain featuring a mother penguin that lost her baby, the Headless Snowman, and an icy slide.
* Bob-omb Buddy: When riding the rope lift, you will spot the Bob-omb Buddy on a floating island.
 
Cool, Cool Mountain is the fourth course in the game. Three stars are required to access it.


==Star 1: Slip Slidin' Away==
==Star 1: Slip Slidin' Away==
This star is obtained by entering the chimney near the start of the level and completing the slide without falling off. At a certain point, a row of coins points toward the wall; go along them to pass through the wall and you will enter a secret passage that has 3 1-ups and no risk of falling. Other shortcuts require looking at the map to find where some slide lines intersect.

On the snow-covered platform next to the chimney for the previous star, there is a blue baby penguin. Pick it up by pressing {{n64|B}} and take it to the mother penguin at the bottom of the mountain. Getting hit by an enemy or falling far will cause you to drop the penguin, which becomes harder to pick up as it moves around.

==Star 3: Big Penguin Race==
==Star 3: Big Penguin Race==
Go in the same chimney as for ''Slip' Slidin Away''. There will be a large penguin waiting; he will offer to race you. Accept, and get to the bottom of the slide before he does.

If you long jump ahead of the penguin to avoid talking to him you only get the star for ''Slip Slidin' Away'' if you have not already got it. Taking the shortcut mentioned above and in the last paragraph is considered cheating. You need to run a clean race to get the star.

==Star 4: Frosty Slide for 8 Red Coins==
==Star 4: Frosty Slide for 8 Red Coins==
{{sidebar|width=250px|title=Super Mario 64 DS|contents=* Coin 1: Before entering the course, you will first need to become Yoshi. When you get into the level, jump onto the house, then the chimney, and then the ledge above it. Jump down to the land where the fire is. Using {{n64|A}}, capture the fire in your mouth. Jump back onto the ledge where the block of ice is with the red coin inside it. Using {{n64|A}}, blow the fire onto the block: the block will melt and you can get the red coin.
[[File:SM64_Cool_Cool_Mountain_Red_Coins_Map.png|thumb|left|A map of Cool, Cool Mountain, with all the red coin locations marked out.]]
* Coin 2: You will need to slide down the slide. At the end of the slide, you will see a red Bob-omb. Beside him is a red coin.
{{sidebar|width=250px|title=Super Mario 64 DS|contents=The Nintendo DS version is altered slightly. Two of the coins are now located in ice blocks, so you must use Yoshi for this Star.
* Coin 3: Hop down to the ledge at the end of the slide, go to the place where the rope elevator drops you off and it's right there.
* Coin 4: Hop back up and cross the bridge; there will be 2 ways to go, so go down a ramp on a snow hill with a broken bridge at the end. Go to the end of the bridge and there is your 4th coin.
* Coin 5: Get off the bridge and go down the ramp to the right. At the end of the ramp you will see a house, a crying penguin, two trees, an elevator, and a cannon. Climb up the tree closest to the cannon, and the 5th coin is at the top.
* Coin 6: Go back past the house and penguin and you will see an open space with a rope bridge and Goombas guarding it. If the Goombas cause trouble then stomp on them. Go to the icy block separating the two bridges and there is your 6th coin.
* Coin 7: Get off the bridge and go to the very end of the open space. The 7th coin is in the corner.
* Coin 8: For the last coin, go to the rope elevator and climb on. Wait until it stops at the very top and get off. On the ledge were you found your 3rd coin there is a cannon. Hop in and look around until you find a ledge with a block of ice and a yellow ? box. Shoot yourself there. Again swallow the fire, go up to the ice block, and blow the fire. You now have the 8th red coin.}}
Collect the eight red coins spread around the level; then, get the star.  The 1<sup>st</sup> coin is within view of the cabin, and is reached by climbing a tree.  After getting this, look for the broken bridge near the starting location.  Have Mario walk to the very last step on the bridge and he will be transported to the very bottom where the Mama penguin is. You can also transport back up to the top when you get the coins on that level. Then take the slide again to get the other coins.
 
The 2<sup>nd</sup> red coin is the hardest to reach. It is under the slide, where you see the second row of gold coins.  Walk, don't slide at that point (you can make him walk by doing a little jump when you start to slide), then jump off of the slide, over to the right and onto the ledge below where the 3<sup>rd</sup> coin is hidden behind the sheet of ice.  Before you jump down to that ledge, be ready to hold {{n64|Z}} and move Mario forward so he won't slide off, because it is very slippery down there. Get the 4<sup>th</sup> red coin, then go toward the box with the life. Get the life and proceed in the same direction and jump off where the giant snowball head is. 
 
Continue to find the coins… the 5<sup>th</sup> is just around the corner.  The 6<sup>th</sup> coin is just over the edge where the elevator comes up from the penguin level.  Go where the two snowmen are jumping on the bridge and cross the bridge. Get a side view of the bridge as you go across and time the jumps where you can run under them as the snowmen are in the air. Don't touch them, just run under. You will see the 7<sup>th</sup> coin after you go across the bridge... go a little past the ledge and jump up to it to assure that you will have enough room without falling off… Walk carefully to the end of the bridge and get the 8<sup>th</sup> coin.
 
After you have found all 8 coins, the easiest way to get the star, is go on to the bottom level, then transport yourself on the broken bridge back up to the top where you started, then take the slide to the left again, but this time, watch when you get to the curve just before you make the last sharp turn to the left. Jump to your right across to the other side.  When you get on that level, you can easily jump right down and get the star below it.
 
There are also two alternatives to getting the star once you have collected all 8 red coins. After you cross the bridge with the jumping snowmen, you can see a broken bridge with the star being on the other side. Position Mario at the very beginning of the flat ground that the broken bridge is connected to. Switch the camera to the "Mario" angle. Run to the end of the bridge and do a long jump(Run + Hold {{n64|Z}} + Hit {{n64|A}}) If you time it right, he will make it without any problems.
 
Alternatively, when sliding at the top of the big slide, fall to the left just after the first string of coins. It's a bit of a tight landing though.  


* Coin 1: Before entering the course, you will first need to become Yoshi. When you get into the level, jump onto the house, then the chimney, and then the ledge above it. Jump down to the land where the fire is. Using {{n64|A}}, capture the fire in your mouth. Jump back onto the ledge where the block of ice is with the red coin inside it. Using {{n64|A}}, blow the fire onto the block: the block will melt and you can get the red coin.
Coin 1: Jump onto the platform above the cottage, and you'll see the red coin trapped in ice there. A little further on and down a small slope, there is a campfire. Swallow it, jump back up to the red coin, and melt the ice away.
* Coin 2: You will need to slide down the slide. At the end of the slide, you will see a red Bob-omb. Beside him is a red coin.
* Coin 3: Hop down to the ledge at the end of the slide, go to the place where the rope elevator drops you off and it's right there.

You now have the 8th red coin.


The star will appear. To get to it walk to the end of the ledge and jump off, run on the bridge and use Yoshi's special jump to get to the other end of the bridge. The star will be right there.
Coin 7: This coin is located in the same place as before, only now, it is in ice and there is a campfire next to it.}}

==Star 5: Snowman's Lost His Head==
Go up on the platform next to the chimney of the cabin, then straight to a wooden platform. This platform has a pedestal with a ball of snow on it. Approach the ball and it will talk to you, then start rolling down the slide. Go in front of it, but do not get too far ahead of it, since it will miss the snowman entirely. Slide then run to the pedestal with the snowman's head. The ball will follow you. Stand next to the snowman's head so the ball runs into the head. The snowman will then give you the star!

Activate the cannons if you have not done so already by talking to the pink Bob-omb on the platform halfway up the lift on the bottom of the mountain. Then, take the cannon at the bottom of the lift and aim toward the ledge directly across. Try to catch on the tree by aiming at the rocks above the tree. Then, run down the narrow ledge, defeating the enemies along the way by punching them. Long-jump (run-tap-{{n64|Z}} then {{n64|A}}) across the gap.

If you do, then just as you hit the wall, press {{n64|A}} to do a wall kick and push the stick to the right. If done correctly, you will land on the top platform, it's a little tricky. Then, walk across the narrow ice path (carefully) and jump to get the star.

{{sidebar|width=250px|title=Super Mario 64 DS|contents=This star needs Yoshi, as he can burn the ice to get two of the red coins.}}
== List of Coins ==
This level has over 150 coins. Due to the slide inside the hut having half of the coins. Although, you can get the coins from the slide and the rest from outside the hut. This guide shows how to get the star without the slide, otherwise Yoshi Isn't required.
The following is a list of all 154 coins you can get on Cool, Cool Mountain.
#Start by jumping straight into the chimney, getting the five coins that lead into it.
 
#Slide down the slide. You only need to get 29 coins. An easy way to do this is to get all the coins up to the first shortcut, and then take that shortcut, getting all the coins that lead into it.
;Yellow Coins — 123 coins
#Leave the slide and get the three red coins on the bottom of the mountain.
*Slide (72 coins)
#Take the warp up to the top of the mountain - it's at the end of the broken bridge. Get the red coin at the top of the tree near the beginning of the level.

#Get the red coin at the end of the slide.
*Coin arrow near "Wall Kicks Will Work" star (8 coins)
#Jump down to the lower platform and get three coins out of the Spindrift.
*Five Spindrifts (15 coins)
#Get the other red coin near the beginning of the rope elevator.
*One Mr. Blizzard (3 coins)
#Jump back up to the higher platform and go across the bridge with the jumping snowmen. Go along the upper platform and get the red coin at the end of the broken bridge.
 
#This part is tricky. You have to long jump across the broken bridge to the other side. Jump up onto the upper platform with the blue coin switch. Hit it, and get the two blue coins.
;Red coins — 16 coins
#This is also fairly hard. Head to the end of the platform opposite where the blue coins landed. Move the camera angle around to where you can see the other side. Jump, and kick in the air so you land on that side. Collect the red coin there.
*Eight red coins (16 coins)
#Jump down to the bridge below and take the lower path. A snowman jumps out of the snow. Run around it a few times, and it falls over and you can get three coins.
 
#A bit further down, there is a Spindrift which has 3 more coins.
;Blue coins — 15 coins
#Jump down to the bottom platform again. Run over to the cannon, jump in it, and shoot over to the tree on the other side of the abyss. Move slowly to the edge and head over to the right, where there are two Spindrifts. You don't need to get either of them, but they have 6 coins in total.
*Two coins from the block by the star marker (10 coins)
#Run to the end and turn right again, where there is an arrow made of 8 coins. You should have enough to get your star.
*One coin at the start of the slide (5 coins)
 
Note:  Be careful when trying to collect coins from Spindrifts. If you defeat them too close to the edge, the coins could drop over and you won't be able to collect them.

  • Location: First floor. On the left side of the staircase, enter the door with a 3 on it, and jump into one of the three paintings.
  • Description: A snowy mountain featuring a mother penguin that lost her baby, the Headless Snowman, and an icy slide.
  • Bob-omb Buddy: When riding the rope lift, you will spot the Bob-omb Buddy on a floating island.

Cool, Cool Mountain is the fourth course in the game. Three stars are required to access it.

Star 1: Slip Slidin' Away[edit]

This star is obtained by entering the chimney near the start of the level and completing the slide without falling off. At a certain point, a row of coins points toward the wall; go along them to pass through the wall and you will enter a secret passage that has 3 1-Ups and no risk of falling. Other shortcuts require looking at the map to find where some slide lines intersect.

Once you reach the bottom of the slide, go through the door to find the star waiting outside.

Star 2: Li'l Penguin Lost[edit]

Super Mario 64 DS
Yoshi cannot be used for this mission, as he can only swallow, not punch or hold, and penguins don't like being swallowed.

On the snow-covered platform next to the chimney for the previous star, there is a little blue baby penguin. Pick her up by pressing B button and take her to the mother penguin at the bottom of the mountain. Getting hit by an enemy or falling far will cause you to drop the penguin, which becomes harder to pick up as she moves around.

Once you bring the baby penguin back to her mother, she will give you the star. If you take the baby away from the mother, the mother will narrow her eyes and waddle towards you crossly until you give her baby back.

Star 3: Big Penguin Race[edit]

Go in the same chimney as for Slip' Slidin Away. There will be a large penguin waiting; he will offer to race you. Accept, and get to the bottom of the slide before he does.

If you long jump ahead of the penguin to avoid talking to him you only get the star for Slip Slidin' Away if you have not already got it. You cannot take any shortcuts, for if you do, the penguin will say that you cheated and refuse to give you your star. You need to run a clean race to get it. But beware, for if you go outside the door you will have to race the penguin again.

If and when you beat the penguin (without using shortcuts), he will then give you the star.

Star 4: Frosty Slide for 8 Red Coins[edit]

A map of Cool, Cool Mountain, with all the red coin locations marked out.
Super Mario 64 DS

The Nintendo DS version is altered slightly. Two of the coins are now located in ice blocks, so you must use Yoshi for this Star.

Coin 1: Jump onto the platform above the cottage, and you'll see the red coin trapped in ice there. A little further on and down a small slope, there is a campfire. Swallow it, jump back up to the red coin, and melt the ice away.

Coin 7: This coin is located in the same place as before, only now, it is in ice and there is a campfire next to it.
A map of Cool, Cool Mountain, with all the red coin locations marked out, in the Nintendo DS version of the game.
  1. The very first coin you collect is above a tree right in front of you at the very start.
  2. Slide all the way down The Slide, and at the end, there will be another red coin.
  3. Head to the right into The Paddock, and straight to the rope elevator. Right at the beginning of the ride, you will see a third red coin.
  4. Once you have reached the bottom, there will be three trees. Above one of them is the fourth red coin.
  5. Run all the way over to the other end of The Field, and just before you drop off the world entirely, turn left into the wall. Hidden in the corner is the next coin.
  6. Head back a bit to the little alcove with a tiny bridge. The bridge leads to a small snowy platform with the sixth coin.
  7. Keep following the path onto the end of the next bridge, whereupon you will warp to a bridge very near the start. Turn around, jump off the bridge, and fall onto the little cliff. The seventh coin is there.
  8. Jump down onto solid ground, make sure you're not on the side with the Headless Snowman, and head towards the broken bridge. The eighth and final red coin is there, and the Star is right on the other side of the bridge.

Star 5: Snowman's Lost His Head[edit]

Go up on the platform next to the chimney of the cabin, then straight to a wooden platform. This platform has a pedestal with a ball of snow on it. Approach the ball and it will talk to you, then start rolling down the slide. Go in front of it, but do not get too far ahead of it, since it will miss the snowman entirely. Slide then run to the pedestal with the snowman's head. The ball will follow you. Stand next to the snowman's head so the ball runs into the head. The snowman will then give you the star!

NOTE: The Snowman's body will only appear after you finish the previous level with the Red Coins.

Star 6: Wall Kicks Will Work[edit]

Activate the cannons if you have not done so already by talking to the pink Bob-omb on the platform halfway up the lift on the bottom of the mountain. Then, take the cannon at the bottom of the lift and aim toward the ledge directly across. Try to catch on the tree by aiming at the rocks above the tree. Then, run down the narrow ledge, defeating the enemies along the way by punching them. Long-jump across the gap.

Then, go to the lowest part of the platform above Mario, and either wall-kick or triple jump onto it. Then, go near the high end. Run backwards a bit, then run up again and right away jump so that you triple jump. You need to hit the vertical part of the wall. If you do, then just as you hit the wall, press A button to do a wall kick and push the stick to the right. If done correctly, you will land on the top platform, it's a little tricky. Then, walk across the narrow ice path (carefully) and jump to get the star.

In Super Mario 64 DS, this Star was renamed Mario's Super Wall Kick, as Mario is the only character who can do the wall kick. However, you can use Luigi's backflip or Yoshi's flutter kick.

Star 7: Switch Star of Cool, Cool Mountain (Nintendo DS)[edit]

Wind disasters
Sometimes the wind does not blow you to safety when you jump off the floating island. Because of this, you will fall and lose a life.

You need Wario for this Star. Go over to where the mother penguin has lost her baby, and ground pound the ice. Now, ride the wooden lift over to the Bob-omb Buddy that unlocks the cannon. There is a Star Switch right next to him. Step on it, and jump off the platform. (The wind will blow you upward, so you won't die.) Quickly run to the Star Sphere, and get your Star.

Star 7 (DS 8): 100 Coins[edit]

Super Mario 64 DS
This star needs Yoshi, as he can burn the ice to get two of the red coins.

This level has over 150 coins. Due to the slide inside the hut having half of the coins. Although, you can get the coins from the slide and the rest from outside the hut. This guide shows how to get the star without the slide, otherwise Yoshi Isn't required.

  1. Start by jumping straight into the chimney, getting the five coins that lead into it.
  2. Slide down the slide. You only need to get 29 coins. An easy way to do this is to get all the coins up to the first shortcut, and then take that shortcut, getting all the coins that lead into it.
  3. Leave the slide and get the three red coins on the bottom of the mountain.
  4. Take the warp up to the top of the mountain - it's at the end of the broken bridge. Get the red coin at the top of the tree near the beginning of the level.
  5. Head to where the Snowman's body would be. There's a Spindrift there, so you can get three coins out of it.
  6. Climb back down and go down the outside slide. There are twenty coins, and if you don't get all of them on the first run, go back down to the warp and try again.
  7. Get the red coin at the end of the slide.
  8. Jump down to the lower platform and get three coins out of the Spindrift.
  9. Get the other red coin near the beginning of the rope elevator.
  10. Jump back up to the higher platform and go across the bridge with the jumping snowmen. Go along the upper platform and get the red coin at the end of the broken bridge.
  11. This part is tricky. You have to long jump across the broken bridge to the other side. Jump up onto the upper platform with the blue coin switch. Hit it, and get the two blue coins.
  12. This is also fairly hard. Head to the end of the platform opposite where the blue coins landed. Move the camera angle around to where you can see the other side. Jump, and kick in the air so you land on that side. Collect the red coin there.
  13. Jump down to the bridge below and take the lower path. A snowman jumps out of the snow. Run around it a few times, and it falls over and you can get three coins.
  14. A bit further down, there is a Spindrift which has 3 more coins.
  15. Jump down to the bottom platform again. Run over to the cannon, jump in it, and shoot over to the tree on the other side of the abyss. Move slowly to the edge and head over to the right, where there are two Spindrifts. You don't need to get either of them, but they have 6 coins in total.
  16. Run to the end and turn right again, where there is an arrow made of 8 coins. You should have enough to get your star.

1-Up Locations[edit]

The following is a list of where to find all six green mushrooms in Cool, Cool Mountain.

  • Jump off a bridge near the start and slide down to where a yellow ! block is.
  • Near the snowman's head is a ! block.
  • Climb up a tree near the snowman's head.
  • There are two on the slide in the hidden shortcut. Note: In the Nintendo 64 version of the game, the second 1-Up is impossible to collect, as it slides into the wall before you can get it. The Nintendo DS version fixed this.
  • At the end of a slide is a ! block up above. This is much easier to get if you take the hidden shortcut.
