Final Fantasy 7 - Great Glacier walkthrough (all items and chests, from Added Cut to Alexander)

You arrive at Great Glacier after snowboarding away from Icicle Inn.

Don’t worry about where you land. After enough time exploring Great Glacier, you will pass out from the cold and wake up at a hut in the very north.

This is useful if you want to skip the area entirely - all you now need to do to continue the story is go north to Gaia’s Cliff.

However, it’s also a great starting point to explore and get every item, as this Great Glacier walkthrough for all items - including Added Cut and Alexander - shows.

If you pass out from the cold along the way again, just start back from the hut and retrace your steps.
