'''Gorilla Glacier''' is a [[List of locations|location]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. It is the fourth [[world]] and an arctic wasteland on the peak of [[Donkey Kong Island]]. It consists of several ice caves and deep ravines, as well as a treetop village. Most levels have icy, slippery ground that cause [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] to slightly lose traction, and many levels have a 3-D effect of snow and dynamic backgrounds.


Gorilla Glacier appears to be the mountainous counterpart to the [[Volcano (world)|Volcano]] world from ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]''. When asked if they were the same region, senior designer Kynan Pearson approved of the idea.<ref>{{cite|author=KynanPearson|date=August 12, 2021|language=en|url=x.com/KynanPearson/status/1425940659152769030|title=Post|publisher=X|archive=web.archive.org/web/20210812220225/https://twitter.com/KynanPearson/status/1425940659152769030|accessdate=August 10, 2024}}</ref> However, the [[Cliff (world)|Cliff]] area uses arranged versions of Gorilla Glacier's music.

In the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' cartoon, the Gorilla Glacier portion of [[Donkey Kong Island|Kongo Bongo Island]] is referred to as the '''White Mountains'''. This area is the home of [[Eddie the Mean Old Yeti]] and is otherwise fairly barren of features.
