Walkthrough

1
Follow the same path as the previous level until you reach the Goomba next to a wooden slant with small ledges.
2
Look ahead to see a triangular obstacle with falling logs in front.
3
Jump onto the falling logs and quickly run across them and up the triangle.
4
At the top of the triangle, jump to the next set of falling logs, avoiding sliding down.
5
Make another jump across the gap to more log platforms, watching out for the flamethrower.
6
You will reach a stone ledge with a '!' switch.
7
Hit the '!' switch to make the tricky triangles flat.
8
Quickly climb the flat triangles to the top; on the second one, perform a backflip to reach the one above.
9
Jump onto the high ledge.
10
Collect the star waiting at the end.

Tips

Do not slide down the triangle; recovering from skidding takes time and can cause you to fall off the logs.
You have no time to spare; complete the climb as quickly as possible.
