You start out your level with 100 silver pennies right? Well, it doesn't matter 
really, I just wondered.

Head to the save station and save without picking up anything. This is your 
starting file. If anything goes wrong with a level, you want your starting file 
to be right at the very beginning so that if you have to start over again 
(which you most likely won't because you have me to guide you with my 
checkpoints) then you'll be able to do so.

Now run around all the fringes of this area before you talk to Thorin, he's the 
dwarf staring off into the distant red glow. A stack of SP by the tree, three 
red CP behind the tree, three more behind the save station, and while your at 
it, why don't you talk to that shivering Dwarf sitting on the stump? He'll 
appreciate it and reward you with a quest! He wants your to fetch a burberry 
plant. Being as you've never even SEEN a burberry plant before, you might think 
it'd be tough, but no problem!

Head on over to the White bearded Dwarf you were supposed to avoid before.
Well? Scuttle off then!

Starting on the right side and going down to the left is a kind of stairway, so 
follow it down a few "steps." Before you go too far though, let me introduce me 
to a "friend" of mine. It's a plant that is sort of a second cousing to the 
Piranha Plants unless I miss my guess. The easiest way to eliminate it is to 
target using (Y) and then equipping your stones and throwing one at it.

Keep going down. Bilbo alerts you to a wolf's presence so go ahead and 
eliminate him. I find the best technique is to whack at it a few times until it 
backs off, and follow it and when it starts coming towards you, whack it some 
more! If you let him nip you, it can get annoying. Especially when you have 
three wolves nipping you at once. I hate that. Man.
These wolves however aren't too tough, you could just whack each maybe three 
times.

After he's dead, three more come to *cough* "help." But they'll be quickly put 
silent won't they? Now at the base of the cliff you came down by is some 
courage points, pick them up. Nope, sorry, you can't go in that hole. I still 
try it every time I'm in this level.....

All right, now keep walking out through the canyon (I don't think there's 
really much to get lost on here) and you'll come to an open area. There's not 
really much in here so just go up the path shown to you by the blue CP. Don't 
miss the sack of Silver Pennies at the first turn!

Before you go rushing into where those plants are, why don't you head the 
opposite way, toward the left. After a bit you'll pick up some CP and a chest. 
Got it. NOW go back.

Take out the two plants with your arm of might (it's easy enough to hit them 
with your stick as well) and go down. Balin will tell you to long jump across 
the wide gap (leading to the platform with two more of those plant things) but 
we don't want to do that just yet. Go up the mountain side and get the CP at 
the very highest point. Kill the plants and behind them is, Hey! It's a 
Burberry plant! (Well, leaves).

Do I have to tell you what to do next? Drop down and talk to Kili, and Thank 
you! Kili!

Go to the save station if you wish.

Now you'll want to go back up to where Balin was, but curiously enough, a rope 
dropped so you can now take a shortcut back up.
Now you can do your long jump.

Hurrah! And whack those plants! And do another jump to the save station.

Hear that? You're supposed to get to the floodgate eh? It's easy enough to 
follow the path up to it so go switch it. 

You may want to grab those stones sitting there, then hop out across the rocks 
in the water for a sack of SP. It doesn't really matter if you fall in because 
the water is shallow enough but I think it is possible to die here if you try 
hard enough :)

Now if you make your way back to where you go down, look to the left through 
some narrow passages and there's another "room" back there. In it you'll find 
CP and a Skeleton Key!

Ready? Now go back down, all the way to that save station if you wish and start 
out across the water.

You'll run into some frog-like creatures (wish I knew the names to all of 
these). They should easily fall under your hand. Make sure you get the chest ;)

Run up towards the chain and take out the plant right around the corner. If you 
need health there's mushrooms at the top of that little mound past the chain. 
All set? Let's depart Indiana Jones style!

Kill the plants and save if you desire.

Run down the path to a stack of SP, then left again for the CP. Okay, you want 
to jump onto the rop that's hanging off of the platform here, and climb down as 
far as you can go, then drop. Kill the creatures (if you wait a little while, 
the wolves and the "frogs" will start killing eachother and I think the wolves 
lose.

Get the chest and all of the CP, then head up the rope you've not been on yet. 
Up the steps, kill the plant, and grab the sack of SP in the corner. Open the 
floodgate and while the cutscene takes place, you get another health bubble! Go 
up the ladder, down the other one. Down here is a Piranha Plant and some CP, 
collect them. Ready to jump across the pond? Don't fall in! Hobbit's can't swim 
very well and you will surely die!

Hop across collecting the CP of course, and then go down the hill, kill the 
plants and save. Phew!

This next part might be a little tricky for you, it's good practice with the 
camera though :)

Hop onto the big wooden gate thingy when it comes around to you. Be patient! 
Stay on this for a little while and collect the two Courage Points that you 
will come underneath of.

When one of the smaller ones come close (towards the center of this vortex) hop 
onto it and ride it around for three more green CP. Now hop onto the next 
closest one (or the very center one if you think you can make it) and then onto 
the rope. Scary huh?

Jump towards the side that has the courage points close by. Get them and then 
turn around the other way. Long jump across the gaps if it makes you feel 
safer. Before you rush straight ahead, turn to your left and get that sack of 
SP. On the right side is some more plants and CP. Get them all. Now you can 
head straight in.

A cutscene takes place and you're stuck inside this area with three monstrous 
trolls!
There's a save station on your right.

Head to the left (of where you came in and you'll run into a dead end, but it 
has two red CP and one green. Now go back the other way.

Follow the trail of blue CP. When you come to the ledge that drops down, be 
careful! You don't want to get caught! Wait for the troll to come up to that 
rock wall that is on your right side, he'll stand for a minute and then stump 
back off, that's your cue to get moving straight for the other side! If you're 
quick, you can grab the CP off to the right and make it up the steps before 
you're caught.

Make sure you grab the green CP though!

Now follow the path and get the chest (and the red CP before it too). Wow! A 
Wallet of 50 SP! That's nice!

Watch out for the troll on patrol, and scamper down towards the next spot. Hide 
behind the rock until the troll stomps off again, then run like mad toward the 
red group of CP, then the blue. Hide here! Wait until the coast is clear and 
then dash of again. Talk about nerve racking! You've got to sneak past this 
next troll (hold down L) and make sure you don't step on the leaves or you'll 
be caught! 

Once through, hop along the platforms and grab the CP and chest. Wow! A sack of 
100 SP! That's pretty snazzy!

Okay, your through, got it all. Before going to save at the station go back 
towards that log, there's a sack with your last SP in it.

Now save.

Sheesh! This troll sure can yawn! Sneak past him when he starts. Boy! Is he 
ugly!
Hide behind the rock that has the Blue CP next to it, this next part might be 
tricky, you have to be patient for that troll not to grab you.

Go down to the next blue CP but look back where the troll is walking back and 
forth. There, out in the open is a pink Courage Point! What? Do these 
programmers think you're a burgler or something? No one in their right mind 
would risk that! Um, well, we would wouldn't we? Snap it and run back. Wait for 
the troll to have his back toward you and then race off to the next hiding 
spot. The best time is when he's walking the same direction you wish to go. 
When he turns back and starts walking there, run towards the next hiding spot 
and get around the other side quick!

Grab all the CP here and wait for it to all disappear into your body. Now check 
your stats.

Two perfects in a row? I'm quite impressed with you Mr. Baggins! Grab the 
Wallet.

In the Vendor I would recommend that you buy the medicine chest, you might need 
it.
