The Ice Cavern is possibly the worst part of Disc 1, with random and forced encounters if you touch the wind that plagues each screen.
On the first screen (Enc. Rate 40), a simple chest opening and wait for the wind on either side to calm. On the second screen (Enc. Rate 24) you can reach the wall on the right before the wind can pick up, but might have to wait for it to die down when going for the Potion.
On the third screen (Enc. Rate 22), if you hold up and right as you cross the ice log to the Potion, you can avoid the wind. Then have Vivi burn the log to make a path for the lower chest. Then make your way for the ice wall toward the other end of the path.
On the fourth screen (Enc. Rate 22), stay right for the Phoenix Down and take the roundabout path if the wind forces you from the direct line. Head left at the fork and take Mois' letter and save after the 2nd tutorial. The Leather Wrist will be collected later.

Before taking the right fork, equip Zidane with the Leather Shirt and give Vivi the Silk Shirt you just replaced from Zidane.
For the Black Waltz 1 fight, alternate between attacking BW1 and using a Potion until BW1 is vanquished. Then steal from Sealion and use a Potion when necessary while you wait for Zidane to trance. With the Leather Wrist on, Zidane's trance gauge can potentially get good boosts since his Spirit is used in it's calculations.
Once you have the Mythril Dagger and Zidane trances, have him attack Sealion then use Free Energy on the next turn to win, provided you don't get low-rolled. With 24 Spirit, Zidane will not de-trance when the fight is over.
Return to Mois to save.
