'''Cold Course''' is Stage 1 of [[Bloo Hills]] in ''[[Kirby: Canvas Curse|Canvas Curse]]''. [[Kirby]] visits Cold Course on his quest to restore himself from the spell cast upon him by [[Drawcia]]. All of the areas seem to be part of a frozen, icy underground cavern system. Similar to other areas of ''Canvas Curse'', Cold Course has three hidden [[medal]]s for [[Medal Swap]] purchases, and companion courses in [[Rainbow Run]] offering a total of six more medals.

==Area 1==
== Stage overview ==
This frozen cave is simple to navigate. Kirby begins by rolling down a steep incline, the rest of the rooms have staggered entry and exit points. Several appearances of [[Block|Metal Blocks]] can be found. The blocks are destroyed and passed through by using the contact activated [[cannon]]. [[Bouncy]], [[Boulder|Ice Boulders]], [[Waddle Dee]]s, and [[Gordo]]s all appear as enemies in this area.

[[Point Star]]s line many of the paths and are also rewarded when passing the [[checkpoint]] in this area. The medal can be found easily, although the tunnel to the doorway is difficult to discern due to foreground elements. A very large [[switch]] and [[Action Block]] can be seen in the room with the medal, but only accessed later.

|This medal can be obtained by traveling through a hidden doorway in a path obscured by a partial foreground ice wall, along the right side of the fist downward chute of this area.


==Area 2==
|-
Breakable ice walls are introduced in this area. The cracked pillars can either be tapped with the stylus or attacked with one of Kirby's [[Copy Ability|copy abilities]] or a dash attack. On the first hit the pillar will fracture more, and the second destroys it. Blocks that can only be broken with the [[freeze]] ability appear in this area as well. The only ice specific environmental hazards present are the falling icicles. Otherwise the primary environmental hazard is the expanse of open pits near the end of the stage. Bouncies, [[Shotzo]], [[Chilly]], and a [[Wheelie]] are enemies present in this stage.

The room visible from the previous area containing a switch for the action block can be accessed midway through this area. The medal is obtainable near the entrance, but requires the freeze ability to break through copy ability specific blocks. Point Stars are abundant throughout the stage but the largest concentration is found near the exit door.
Area 2 also appears as the Line Trial challenge of Rainbow Run.
|In the first portion of this area, the medal can be obtained by heading left from the right-facing stick pad and using the [[Freeze]] ability to bust through a set of blocks along the narrow hall. From there, Kirby needs to make his way up past breakable ice walls and maneuver around the Shotzo who can be re-positioned by breaking the Star Block it is resting on (though this should not be done too soon).


Area 2 also appears as the Line Trial challenge of Rainbow Run.

|{{Center|[[File:KCC Cold Course area 03 map.png|50px]]<br>'''Area 3'''}}
|Area 3 is slightly more complex. The first room consists of several seemingly dead ends. The walls of ice blocking paths correspond to certain switches in the room. Kirby will need to press each switch to get through the room. The following rooms are descending passageways lined with spikes. At the very bottom, Kirby will be ferried by a moving stick pad, and the player will need to draw Rainbow Lines above to shield Kirby from the falling [[Icicle]]s.
 
This area also appears as the Time Trial challenge of Rainbow Run.
|To obtain this medal, Kirby must travel through a doorway nestled behind a wall of Metal Blocks. To break these blocks, a large iron boulder can be released to smash through it, but first, a floor needs to be created for it to roll along by hitting a Bomb Block further down.

|This chamber is accessed a few times in order to obtain two of the medals, but these paths are separate from a larger room containing the green [[Big Switch]]. This particular room can be accessed by ignoring the first fan switch in Area 2 and moving down to find a bottomless hall with [[Icicle]]s raining down from the ceiling. Passing this takes Kirby through a doorway leading to a room filled with a no-draw zone. Kirby will need to navigate using cannons to reach the switch and press it to remove all green Action Blocks in the game.
|N/A


The medal and switch for the green action blocks can be found in the same room as the other medals. Kirby will need to employ the large black ball to break through the metal blocks, in order to access it.
