The starting area in the Frosty Frontier Stage features a Mr. Blizzard and a [[? Block]] that is replaced by a [[Sky Cannon]] once Porcupuffer is defeated. A green Shy Guy is initially found ice-skating around the area. Defeating it causes a yellow Shy Guy to take its place, followed by a red Shy Guy and then a blue Shy Guy, after each previous enemy is defeated. The pattern is repeated after the blue Shy Guy, and defeating the yellow Shy Guy yields the player a [[Power Star|Star]]. [[Toad's tent]] is located here, as well as a small igloo that can be accessed with the use of a [[Mini Mushroom]].

Inside the igloo, a parka-wearing [[Monty Mole]] and a ? Block with an [[Super Star|Invincibility Star]] are found. Unlike with other Monty Moles in the game, hitting it eight times yields the player a Star.

The Freezie area is accessible via the 1-[[★ door]] in the starting area. In the area, four penguins are found circling around a large Freezie. Hitting a penguin causes it to fall down and slide around the ice, knocking each other and [[Mario]] around, and hitting it while it is knocked down defeats it. Defeating all four penguins in the area yields the player a Star. By hitting the Freezie, Mario is able to push it around. If it is pushed over the crack on the ground, the Freezie sinks, forming a hole that leads Mario to the [[treasure chest]] area. Later, another Monty Mole appears in this area, and hitting it four times in a row rewards the player with a [[1-Up Mushroom|1-UP Mushroom]].

The Mr. Blizzard area is accessible via the 3-★ door in the Freezie area. Here, four Mr. Blizzards and a ? Block containing a [[Yoshi's Egg|Yoshi Egg]] can be found. The Mr. Blizzards periodically throw snowballs at Mario while he moves around the area. Stunning all four Mr. Blizzards yields the player a Star.

Inside the sunken ship, Porcupuffer is fought. The boss swims around the area, occasionally chasing after Mario. Mario must hit the [[trapdoor (Mario Pinball Land)|trapdoor]]s in order to release [[Bob-omb|cannonball bombs]], which can then be used to stun Porcupuffer, rendering it vulnerable to attacks. After the boss is defeated, two ? Blocks appear in the area, and after Mario brings the [[Star Key (Mario Pinball Land)|Star Key]] to the [[Fiery Stage]], a [[! Switch|Red Switch]] appears at the center of the area.
