[¡SPOiLERS!] Super Mario Odyssey 100% Guide - Cascade Kingdom

Welcome to the second post in my series of posts that are all alert of my second 100% Game Completion Guide! These posts basically go over how to obtain every collectible in a specific kingdom, eventually covering the entire game! So I figured I would compile guides and maps into one post per kingdom for ease of access, just so you won’t have to deal with website ads, and all the problems some websites have.

So if you have any questions about moons or regional coins please ask in the comments and I will reply to all comments!

Before we get into the item locations, let’s take a look at the in-game “brochure”, or description, about the Cascade Kingdom!

A Tall Drink of Water

There are many waterfalls in the Cascade Kingdom, but the area known as Fossil Falls is a special one.

There are few sights in nature as grand as the millions of gallons of water pouring every second out of this giant triceratops

Nature in Balance

The stone spire standing near the great falls has miraculously remained balanced upright in this position, presumably for eons.

Of particular interest are the cubes of unknown material embedded in the stone. There cubes are the reason for the common theory that the spire somehow fell from the sky. While this theory is difficult to prove, it is equally hard to doubt when looking at this miraculous stone structure.

The Ancient Wall

No ordinary cliff face, this structure was carved out painstakingly over many long years by people unknown. The wall is composed mainly of fossils, and evidence suggests it has been broken many times, causing some to suggest that something is buried inside. Visitors are encouraged to explore the mysteries surrounding the Great Barrier, if they dare.

The Prehistoric Tyrant

The biggest draw for tourists to this area is that dinosaurs still live here. Many people willingly put themselves at considerable risk for a glimpse of the ancient "terrible lizards."

T-Rex, most terrible of all dinosaurs, can pulverize a boulder with a single blow. On the other hand, most people don't realize how much time they spend napping.

An Old, Odd Structure

No one knows how a Bonneton-style structure got buried here. Bonneters travel often, so they may have lived here in the past. It is a helpful landmark if you get lost, though.

Natural Patterns: The Fossil

If you look closely at the stone walls, you will notice fossils mixed in. Think of it as nature's mosaic, and it always.

Three Keys to the Kingdom

Experience the glory of nature with the eye-popping Great Falls.

See dinosaurs, prehistoric rulers of a bygone age.

Find treasures of the past, tucked away everywhere you look.

Now let’s get into the collectibles, and items!

The power moons are fairley straight forward for the Cascade Kingdom. But there are definitely a few that may give you a problem or confuse you.

So let’s get right into the Power Moons!

Please reference this map for certain moons!

1. Our First Power Moon

You’ll find this power moon when you first visit the Cascade Kingdom. You can’t miss it.

2. Multi Moon Atop The Falls

You’ll get three power moons for defeating the area boss.

3. Chomp Through The Rocks

In the area with four Chain Chomps, use Cappy to control the one pictured above. Hit the discolored section of the wall to collect this power moon.

4. Behind The Waterfall

You’ll find this power moon behind the waterfall, but you’ll need to hop over a wall while you’re 2-D Mario. Jump up to hit the invisible block that we’re just about to jump on in the image above.

5. On Top Of The Rubble

This power moon is sitting on a pile of rocks just beyond the Odyssey — between your ship and the shops.

6. Treasure of the Waterfall

Swim through the water between the waterfalls, and you’ll find a cave. Inside, there’s a chest that you can throw Cappy at for a power moon.

7. ABOVE A HIGH CLIFF

Use the first Chain Chomp you come across, use Cappy to take it over, and smash the rock on the nearby wall. You’ll unveil a pipe. Take it, and collect the power moon on top.

8. ACROSS THE FLOATING ISLES

At the northern end of where you fought the area boss there are three floating platforms and a power moon waiting for you on one.

9. CASCADE KINGDOM TIMER CHALLENGE 1

Between the two waterfalls, you’ll find a scarecrow. Throw Cappy on it, and cross the moving platforms to collect this power moon.

10. CASCADE KINGDOM TIMER CHALLENGE 2

In the same area where you fought the area boss, you’ll find a scarecrow. Throw you hat on it, and a bunch of blocks will appear. Jump up before the timer runs out to claim your power moon.

11. GOOD MORNING, CAPTAIN TOAD!

Off the side of the area where you fought the area boss, you’ll find a big silver block. Hop onto its platform and look down for another platform to drop down to. There, you’ll meet Captain Toad, who’ll reward you with a power moon.

12. DINOSAUR NEST: BIG CLEANUP!

Behind the red hat door near the Top of the Big Stump flag, you’ll get to become a dinosaur. Destroy all of the enemies in the room to get this power moon.

13. DINOSAUR NEST: RUNNING WILD!

Behind the red hat door near the Top of the Big Stump flag, you’ll get to become a dinosaur. Instead of destroying all of the enemies in the room, walk off the side of the cliff to the area below. Destroy all of the bricks between you and the trampoline. One of them unleash a power moon.

14. NICE SHOT WITH THE CHAIN CHOMP!

You’ll need to line up shots with the Chain Chomps in three rooms to get this power moon. Check out the gallery above for the correct angles.

15. VERY NICE SHOT WITH THE CHAIN CHOMP!

In the area where you receive the first power moon, walk up to where the camera is and to the right of the screen. You’ll find a hidden room and one more Chain Chomp puzzle to solve. Check out the gallery above to see the correct angle.

16. PAST THE CHASM LIFTS

By the Stone Bridge flag and warp point, you’ll find a red door with a hat on it. (Check out the gallery above for the exact location.) Follow the path through, and this power moon awaits.

17. HIDDEN CHASM AGE

Enter through the same red hat door as the previous power moon. This time, though, you’ll take a hidden path. Between the first and second big rooms, when you’re 3-D again, jump down to the grassy platform underneath you (instead of heading through the green pipe

18. SECRET PATH TO FOSSIL FALLS!

You will be unable to claim this Power Moon until you have reached the Snow Kingdom and Seaside Kingdom.

Once the main objectives in Snow Kingdom are complete, capture the Ty-Foo near the Odyssey and fly off to the Eastern side of the basin where a large wooden block is on top of a slope.

Push it across with the Ty-Foo's gusts so you can use it as stairs to get up to a ledge where the painting to Cascade Kingdom is hiding.

Enter the painting and claim the moon.

19. A TOURIST IN THE CASCADE KINGDOM

To get this power moon, you need to beat the game and return to the Sand Kingdom. the taxi that’s always been there? Speak to a sombrero-wearing little guy, who’ll tell you that he can’t wait to take a ride. Then go to the Metro Kingdom and find him again. (It’s not hard. He’s right in front of you when you ride the wire to enter the city, and you’ll get a Metro Kingdom power moon for your trouble.) “I’d like to see a waterfall,” he’ll say. Return to the Cascade Kingdom, where you’ll find him and get this power moon.

20. ROLLING ROCK BY THE FALLS

Cross the bridge between waterfalls and turn right. You’ll see two rocks partially buried near a cliff wall. Kick the one on the right a lot, and eventually you get this power moon.

21. PEACH IN THE CASCADE KINGDOM

Warp to Fossil Falls Heights (which is above the waterfall). Talk to Peach above the waterfall to receive the power moon.

22. CASCADE KINGDOM REGULAR CUP

Speak to a Koopa near the Odyssey, who’ll offer you a race. Come in first to get the power moon.

23. CAVEMAN CAVE-FAN

Speak to a hat-wearing NPC in the northwest corner of the kingdom. “I heard there was a real caveman around here,” he’ll say. “I'd love to meet one!” Go back to the Odyssey and change into your caveman outfit. Return to speak to the NPC to collect your power moon.

24. SHOPPING IN FOSSIL FALLS

Buy this moon in the yellow shop for 100 coins.

25. SPHYNX TRAVELING TO THE WATERFALL

Use the green binoculars near the Odyssey, and scan the sky for until you see a Sphynx. Keep looking, and you’ll get a power moon.

26. BOTTOM OF THE WATERFALL BASIN

In the water between the waterfalls, you’ll find a glowing underwater area. Butt stomp it for a power moon.

27. JUST A HAT, SKIP, AND A JUMP

This power moon is off the northeast coast, several hat tosses and jumps away.

28. TREASURE UNDER THE CLIFF

On the cliffside where you have to throw you hat to create temporary platforms and reach three purple coins, throw Cappy to the first platform and then jump up and bounce off the wall for this power moon.

29. NEXT TO THE STONE ARCH

Off the side of the bridge that leads to the area where you fought the boss, you’ll see a moon. Jump off the side to collect it.

30. GUARDED BY A COLOSSAL FOSSIL

This power moon is on the fossil’s nose. Climb out on the ledge and throw Cappy while holding down Y. He’ll spin for a few seconds, and you’ll get a power moon.

31. UNDER THE OLD ELECTRICAL POLE

Steer the T. Rex down toward the Odyssey, and use it to destroy the electrical pole. After it falls, do a ground pound on the glowing patch of grass for this power moon.

32. UNDER THE GROUND

Take control of the T. Rex and move him a few feet. Underneath where he originally was, you’ll see a glowing patch of grass. Ground pound it, and you’ll get a power moon. (You need to beat the game and smash the moon rock before this will be available.)

33. INSIDE THE BUSTED FOSSIL

At the Fossil Falls Heights Checkpoint, look for the two Chain Chomps here and send them crashing into the fossil stones on the North ridge. Use the Chain Chomp closest to the checkpoint to hit the biggest fossil rock, and you'll reveal a Power Moon.

34. CAUGHT HOPPING AT THE WATERFALL!

There’s a rabbit wearing a top hat and hanging out near the pool of water between the waterfalls. You’ll need to catch him to get his power moon.

36. CASCADE KINGDOM MASTER CUP

Speak to the Koopa near the Odyssey to run a harder version of the race you already ran, but only if you want a power moon. The key to winning is rolling whenever possible and taking a shortcut, which we’ve immortalized in the image above. (It felt really great to pull off.)

38. ATOP A WALL AMONG THE CLOUDS

Enter what looks like the top of a gray chimney near the Stone Bridge flag and warp. There’s a hidden block above a set of blocks past the first section of obstacles. Jump to hit it, jump again to climb on top of the platform, and follow the path to your left for this power moon.
