DS DK Pass

DK Pass is a snowy course in Mario Kart DS that takes the player over a mountain and back down. Numerous snowballs roll around, and crashing into to them will result in being thrown backwards and losing whatever item a racer may be carrying. Snowmen also appear all over the course, and are very similar to the snowmen found in Frappe Snowland in Mario Kart 64. Collision with the snowmen has the same effect as collision with the snowballs.

There is an isolated Item Box up on a snowy cliff at the peak of the hill, after the second set of normal item boxes. The player will need a Mushroom or two to get through the snow to the item box, but in it contains one of these items: Star, Red Shell, Mushroom and Triple Mushrooms. Any of them can be received in any position, including in Wi-Fi play.

There is a beta version of this course in the demo version game's code. It appears the same, however, but with grass textures instead of snow, and regular boulders replacing snowballs. These changes were done probably because it would've been too similar to Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'s DK Mountain.
