- Push the mirror right along the causeway to the eastern bend. Leave it aligned with the northward stretch of land.
- Walk around to the boulder. Move it onto the northern lip of the island in the same column as the mirror.
- Push the boulder north into the water, then stand on the resulting stone. This extra distance puts the reflection on the southern tip of the western island.
- Activate the mirror action to jump west. Walk north along the exit island to the yellow ring.
