Gorilla Glacier is a location in Donkey Kong Country. It is the fourth world and an arctic wasteland on the peak of Donkey Kong Island. There are several ice caves and deep ravines with slippery floors, as well as a treetop village. The snow levels have a 3-D effect of snow and dynamic backgrounds.
Gorilla Glacier appears to be the mountainous counterpart to the Volcano world from Donkey Kong Country Returns. When asked if they were the same region, senior designer Kynan Pearson approved of the idea.[1] However, the Cliff area uses arranged versions of Gorilla Glacier's music.
In the Donkey Kong Country cartoon, the Gorilla Glacier portion of 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.
