'''Mt. Itoi''', (Japanese: '''ホーリー•ローリー•マウンテン''' ''Holy Loly Mountain'') also written as '''Mount Itoi''', is one of the final areas in ''[[EarthBound Beginnings|Mother 1/EarthBound Beginnings]]''. It is notorious for being an extremely difficult area, and when [[Shigesato Itoi]] was asked of this, he said that the game was so close to completion he rushed everything and didn't have time to test the difficulty.<ref>"What I get most is, “I’m at Mt. Itoi now, help!” That place is just crazy. When we got to fine-tuning there, I was like, “Whatever!”" --[[Shigesato Itoi]] ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKpaKlatg5M#t=460s footage])</ref>  The seventh and eighth [[Eight Melodies|melodies]] are both located here. The Japanese Manual states that it is considered a sacred place, and that few people ever travel up it.

The forest path was altered during localization to being a linear path to the cave: in Mother the path was more of a maze with many misleading paths between the trees, whereas in EarthBound Beginnings the misleading paths were blocked by trees. Interestingly in Mother a group of trees form the shape of a question mark (?).

The cave is accessible from the base. The cave is a vast maze with many winding paths, and there are many powerful enemies in the cave. The player can find the most powerful weapons for each character (with the exeption of Lloyd) in here. At the end of the caves, the player will exit and be on the mountain itself.
