Start in the Great Glacier area at the Area 10 Crossroads. This can be done at any point in the game, as long as you can get to the Great Glacier. Take the path from the upper-right corner of this area. On the second screen of this path, you will find the Added Cut materia (if you haven't already). Continue on the path until you reach the Area 8 Hot Springs. Walk onto the bridge over the spring. There is a path leading down from the middle of it to the water's edge. Touch the water (press O), then leave the area by the path from the upper-left corner. Continue along this path until you reach the Area 12 Snow Fields. Walk toward the top of the screen, planting flags repeatedly as you go. When the wind causes the screen to rotate wildly, stop moving and wait for it to settle down. Then use the flags to re-orient yourself. Eventually, you will reach a cave. Enter it. Examine the pot under the tent (if you haven't already). You will get an All materia. Leave the cave. Head to the left of the cave entrance, using the technique from before to maintain a course. You will reach a screen with a path leading to the right. Follow the path across several screens until you reach an area with a cave on the right-hand side(Area 13).
You may pass out at this point. If you pass out, you will wake in a house. Rest and save there. Then go outside. After reading through the dialogue, exit the area at the bottom of the screen. You will be at the entrance to Area 12. Follow the directions above to return to Area 13.
When you reach Area 13, enter the cave on your right. You will see an old woman in the cave. Talk to hear and she will attack you. Despite the boss music playing in this battle's background, the woman is an ordinary monster. Use fire magic to end this fight quickly. After you defeat the woman, she will drop the Alexander materia.
