This sublevel has many [[Snow Bulborb]]s and a couple of [[Hairy Bulborb]]s. Before Olimar and Louie engage the Hairy Bulborbs, they must take out any Snow Bulborbs near it then attack the hairy monstrosities. Then, they must explore the area and have their [[White Pikmin]] unearth any buried treasures. When they wander the area, they may need to encounter [[Doodlebug]]s. After they have emerged from their cover, they may skitter into a [[Figwort]]. If this happens, Olimar and Louie must wait until they move and release flatulence to locate them.

After all the Anode Beetles are massacred, Olimar and Louie may take out the Swooping Snitchbugs and the Bumbling Snitchbug and proceed to collect the treasures.
