'''Snowhead Temple''' is the second [[dungeon]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. It is located deep in the region of [[Snowhead]].{{Ref|MM|433|Sign}}{{Ref|MM|436|Sign}}  To gain access to the temple, [[Link]] must obtain the [[Goron Mask]] to traverse the snow ramps on the road to Snowhead Mountain.{{Ref|MM|445|Sign}} Link is unable to access it at first due to a harsh blizzard, but upon closer inspection with the [[Lens of Truth]] this is shown to be the effect of a large [[Goron]].{{Ref|MM|2165|[[Goron]]}} Link must play the [[Goron Lullaby]] in order to put the large Goron to sleep, thus gaining access to the entrance.{{Ref|MM|3791}}

The primary theme of the temple is ice, though lava is present on the bottom floors. The dungeon itself revolves around a central structure which is composed of four separate floors and a basement. Link's main task to navigate towards the top floor of the dungeon where the [[boss]] room lies. The young hero must make use of the Goron Mask here in order to progress through many of the temple's puzzles. Here Link obtains [[Fire Arrow]]s, which he gets after facing a [[Wizzrobe]], the dungeon's first mini-boss.{{Ref|MM|41}} After facing the second Wizzrobe, Link obtains the [[Boss Key]], which allows him to enter the boss room on the fourth floor. The boss of this specific temple is [[Goht]], the Masked Mechanical Monster, who upon defeat yields Link [[Goht's Remains|his remains]].{{Ref|MM|83}} In addition, after defeating the boss of this temple, Snowhead's harsh winter subsides and spring returns to the region.{{Ref|MM|84}} Lastly, if Link collects all 15 [[Stray Fairy|Stray Fairies]] in the temple, the [[Great Fairy]] rewards him by doubling his [[Magic Meter]].{{Ref|MM|909|[[Great Fairy]]}}{{Ref|MM|910|[[Great Fairy]]}}  

The Dungeon Map is quite an important item within this dungeon, as it shows Link the layout of the many floors and rooms, therefore making it exceedingly easier to navigate. The Map itself is the first dungeon item Link comes across, but it is not mandatory for completion. It is located to within the elevator room, which also includes a [[Real Bombchu]]. After defeating this enemy, Link can open the large [[Treasure Chest]], which contains the map.  

The Boss Key is the final dungeon item within this temple. Unlike the Compass and the Dungeon Map, it is actually compulsory, as it is needed to access the boss room of Goht. In this dungeon, the Boss Key is located on the fourth and highest floor. To obtain the item, Link must face the second mini-boss of this dungeon, the second Wizzrobe. After the Wizzrobe is defeated, the path to next room is now clear, and it is here where Link finds the chest containing the Boss Key.
