I think your OP is a little confusing, but I think I get it. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
If you walk out of the waypoint towards the South East, the entrance to the Durance level 3 stairs will be North East. That's following the red arrows you made in the picture.
If you realize that you cannot walk towards the North East, but the stairs will be towards the North East, then you should find a location that allows you to find the stairs.
Is that right or no? I think I understand your guide, and I really like it.
If we were to make another example, you could take any direction from the WP, rotate it 90 degrees counter clockwise, and the walkway up to the stairs has to be that way. Right?
You got it I think! At least, the way into the Durance Level 3 entrance TILE has to face that way. The example in the post shows it isn't always located in that direction though, right?

this comment really cleared it up to me. so is this true 100% of the time for this map? if so, that definitely changes how i approach this map, knowing which way the entrance to lvl 3 is oriented!
Yes, the map generation always follows this rule.

With the knowledge of this post about what direction you have to go, you can think about the green arrows I made here. So when you get to where I stopped my purple line, you might go, "aha!" and skip the left half of the area.
