This is fairly simple to accomplish. Simply take a Spicy Pepper (some types of mushroom also work) and light it on fire. Anything from a torch to a fire arrow to a Flameblade will work. As it cooks, it will create an updraft that Link can use to get to higher areas that are previously unaccessable, whether from stamina limits or other limitations. It can also work with 4 or 5 wood clumped together, but it is more resource intensive.
