...and land on a ledge outside the temple. From the small ledge between the two waterfalls, take a standing jump into either of the openings behind the falls.

Now move to either opening and face the ledge between the alcove's two openings. Position at the farthest corner of the tile nearest the opening, then take a standing jump (with Action) through the falling water to land on the ledge.

Turn left and you'll see a save/power-up crystal in the distance. That's where you're headed next. Take a running jump to grab the stone ledge ahead.

Pull up and follow the ledge around to the far end. Drop down and get the crystal.

Then climb back onto the ledge above. Turn right and climb onto the next higher ledge, at the edge of a forested area.
