When you're ready to enter the final dungeon pilot the Highwind to the crater and descend the ladder. Run down the hill and enter the Northern Cave.

Start off by opening the chest and getting the Save Crystal. Follow the side of the cave around in circles on the way down to the bottom. Be sure to get the Guard Source on the way down. In the next section go left and climb up to find a chest containing a Power Source, also grab the HP Absorb Materia on your right. Head down and get the Elixir. Return to the top and take the path down East and get the Mind Source and Guard Source. Before heading to the next section climb up the left side and get the chest containing Magic Source.  

In this area drop down to your left, then take the huge drop on your right. Open the chest to receive Mind Source then walk over the the ledge on your right but don't drop, instead press circle to jump up to your left. Run left then drop down and enter the cave, inside you'll find a chest containing Megalixir.  Leave the cave and drop down to the left.  Get the chest containing Hero Drink and enter the cave. Grab the Guard Source, and follow the tunnel just above you to a Power Source. Take the Northwest exit out of the cave and drop down to the right.  Enter the cave and follow the path around, when back out again, keep dropping down to reach the next section. You'll find all your party members here, climb down to reach them. Now there are a number of branching paths, this walkthrough will cover all of them but require some backtracking. These are only recommendations you don't need to do them if you choose not to.

At the next fork send everyone up and then proceed Northeast. Start by heading East in this room and follow the path to a chest with Magic Source.  Return to where you came into this room and head North until Cloud takes a little trip underwater. Grab the Remedy to the Northwest and proceed to the next area.  Grab the chest at the Northwest containing Vaccine.  Next go up the hill to the North and pick up the green Shield Materia lying on the ground.  You can drop off the ledge just below the Shield Materia to walk underwater to reach a chest containing Imperial Guard. Go back across, get the hero Drink at the South eastern corner then exit the area to the Northeast.

In this area head left.  At the very edge where the greenery meets the rocks just above the central glowing thing you will see a purple Materia lying on the ground. This is the W-Magic Materia, a yellow Materia that looks purple for whatever reason. Proceed South into the glowing centre. Examine it to find the Counter Materia.  Leave this area via the door to the West, you will be reunited with your party if you go down the stairs, but for now do not do so. Open the chest and get the Luck Source then enter the door right above it.
