Gusty Glade (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)

Gusty Glade is the twenty-fifth level of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Land 2. It is the third area of Gloomy Gulch.

Although taking place in an eerie forest, this level has strong gusts of wind that can push the Kongs into abysses. Sometimes, the wind can be tricky and change directions suddenly, so the monkeys must watch their footing. To make things a little easier, Rattly the Rattlesnake can be found in this stage, but is hidden behind a high ledge right at the beginning of the level. Enemies here include,Klampons, Kannons, Neeks, Spinys, Click-Clacks and Flitters, as well as Kutlass, who only appears in Donkey Kong Country 2's version of Gusty Glade.

It should also be noted that this is the only level in Donkey Kong Land 2 that is almost entirerly the same as Donkey Kong Country 2's version of the stage. Although some enemies or items may have been excluded or moved, the layout remains very similar. Even though the layout is alike in both games, however, Bonus Levels and other secrets are still hidden in distinct places.
