Jump down off the ledge and head down the slope past the cart with the winch on it to find a box of supplies near the left wall. Now push the winch cart about halfway down the track...

Go around to the other side of the cart and fire a rope arrow into the bucket...

Now crank the winch until the bucket is directly beneath the falling water. If it doesn't line up exactly, adjust the position of the cart on the track until it does.

The bucket fills with water, becoming heavier until it finally falls into the canyon, dragging the cart with it...

As you approach the end of the crane arm, it tilts forward. At the end, jump down to the wide stone ledge below.
