One Lanmola can be found northwest of the Gerudo Desert Entrance waypoint. Another can be found to the south of the waypoint near the Ancestor's Cave of Rest.

Once you have all the prerequisites taken care of, travel to Gerudo Town, and head towards the entrance of Gerudo Palace that is guarded by two sentries. You will notice another entrance just left of the main one.

Go inside that entrance, and talk to the guard on the left. A short cutscene will play out, and you will be able to begin the Wild Sanstorms Side Quest after the cutscene ends.

Objectives
1
Travel to the Waypoint East of the Oasis and North of Suthorn Beach. From there, head northwest to see sand bubbling on the surface. Send out Monster Echoes before Lanmola emerges from the sand.

It is recommended that you equip the Gerudo Sandals Accessory when battling Lanmola, as the accessory prevents Zelda from sinking into quicksands.

Use Bind to pull Lanmola out from the sand, and send out Echoes to fight for you until Lanmola is defeated.
