You must head over to the Biron Snowshelf area northwest of Rito Village, and you can reach it by launching yourself from the Rospro Pass Skyview Tower. Next, you must find the North Biron Snowself Cave, whose entrance will be hidden behind a massive chunk of ice.

You can melt the ice by throwing fire-type materials, fusing fire-type materials to arrows, lighting up a campfire, or using the Flame Emitter device. Afterward, you can head inside and destroy the rocks blocking the path on the ground.

After you jump down, you will find a chamber containing a large stone statue and an air vent in the middle. Your next goal is to destroy the breakable rock walls in the room. Three of them will lead to the three springs, but the rest will hide a bunch of Ice Keeses.

You can use the updraft and your paraglider to bring yourself into the air. Then, you can pull out your bow and fuse arrows with Flower Bombs to destroy the rock walls.

Once you unblock the water flow from the three springs, the statue will move to reveal a hidden chamber. The treasure chest will contain the Vah Medoh Divine Helm.

This ancient relic provides 2 Defense, a Cold Resistance Buff, and will also strengthen the bond with the Zora. Essentially, when Link wears this helm, Sidon’s power will be more potent.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t belong to an armor set, so it won’t offer any additional set bonuses. However, you can still stack the Cold Resistance Buff with other similar armor pieces like, say, the Archaic Warm Greaves. Lastly, you can also acquire the Vah Medoh Divine Helm by scanning the The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Revali Amiibo.
