How do I find the memory near the Ridgeland region in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild?

To find the memory near the Ridgeland region in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, you will need to follow a series of steps that involve exploration, puzzle-solving, and careful preparation. This memory is part of the "Captured Memories" quest, which is given to you by Impa in Kakariko Village after you complete the "Seek Out Impa" main quest. The memory near Ridgeland is one of 12 scattered across Hyrule, and finding it will reveal a piece of Link's past, adding depth to the story.

First, you need to know the exact location of the memory. The memory near Ridgeland is located at the Tabantha Bridge Stable, which is in the Tabantha region, just north of the Ridgeland Tower. To get there, you can start from the Ridgeland Tower, which is located in the Ridgeland region. From the tower, head northwest towards the Tabantha region. You will need to cross the Tabantha Great Bridge, which spans the Tanagar Canyon. The Tabantha Bridge Stable is located just south of the bridge.

Before heading to the location, it is important to prepare adequately. Make sure you have a good supply of food and elixirs to restore health and stamina. The area around the Ridgeland Tower and the Tabantha region can be dangerous, with enemies like Lizalfos and Moblins. Having a strong weapon, such as a Royal Broadsword or a Savage Lynel Sword, will help you deal with these threats. Additionally, having a bow and arrows is useful for dealing with enemies from a distance.

Once you arrive at the Tabantha Bridge Stable, you will need to locate the exact spot where the memory is triggered. The memory is located near the stable, close to the edge of the canyon. Look for a small, grassy area with a view of the bridge and the canyon. When you approach the correct spot, a cutscene will trigger, showing Link remembering a moment from his past with Princess Zelda.

One common mistake players make is not having the Sheikah Sensor upgraded to detect memory locations. If you have completed the "Locked Mementos" quest and upgraded your Sheikah Sensor at the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab, you can set the sensor to detect memory locations. This will make it much easier to find the exact spot where the memory is triggered. Without the sensor, you may spend a lot of time searching the area.

Another important tip is to use your map and the in-game camera to help locate the memory. The picture of the memory location provided by Impa can give you a rough idea of where to look. Compare the landscape in the picture with the actual environment to narrow down the search area. The Tabantha Bridge and the canyon are distinctive landmarks that can help you orient yourself.

If you are having trouble finding the memory, consider using a guide or online resource that shows the exact location. There are many detailed maps and videos available that can help you pinpoint the memory spot. However, if you prefer to find it on your own, take your time and explore the area thoroughly. Sometimes, the memory is triggered in a slightly different spot than expected, so be patient and keep looking.

In terms of advanced techniques, you can use the paraglider to cover more ground quickly. From the Ridgeland Tower, you can glide towards the Tabantha region, saving time and stamina. Additionally, using a horse can make the journey faster and safer, as you can avoid some of the enemies along the way. If you have the Master Cycle Zero from the "EX The Champions' Ballad" DLC, you can use it to travel quickly to the location.

Finally, once you have found the memory, take a moment to enjoy the cutscene and the story it reveals. This memory is an important part of the game's narrative, and it adds depth to Link's relationship with Princess Zelda. After the cutscene, you can continue your journey, knowing that you are one step closer to recovering all of Link's memories and uncovering the full story of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
