==Overview==
The mountains themselves are full of rocky cliffs, river below, waterfalls, lava pits, caves, fossils of prehistoric animals, tar rivers, dinosaur eggs, primitive mechanisms and remains of [[Snaps]] ships embedded in the rocks. Because of the rise of the Kremling Krew, mining in the tar pits was established.<ref>{{media link|Kevin Bayliss in Twitter (10, 19, 2019).png|''Kevin Bayliss'' on Twitter (
==History==
===Background information===
When [[Tiki Tong]] gave birth to the [[Kong Island|island]] with his volcanic power in prehistoric times, a number of [[wikipedia:Ammonoidea|ammonite fossils]] and ancient ships that had been at the bottom of the sea for millennia were revealed on the cliff.<ref>{{media link|Adrian Smith in Twitter (12, 10, 2023).png|''Adrian Smith'' on Twitter (December 10, 2023)}}</ref> For a long time, all that remained were the fossils of all types of dinosaurs, tar and gigantic dinosaur eggs stored in hills & caves.
===''Donkey Kong'' franchise===
In ''Donkey Kong'' as '''Rocky-Valley''', it was explored by [[Mario]] as the eighth location of the journey to rescue [[Pauline]] from the hands of [[Cranky Kong|Donkey Kong]]. The plumber had to dive into the river, jumping from the degraded floors, swimming in the waterfalls, opening the passage to save Pauline, climbing without dropping the hammer, activating the levers to change the direction of the elevators along with the passage, escaping from Donkey Kong Jr.'s traps, crossing the thorny paths with the boulders thrown by Donkey Kong, passing through the waterfalls, going down the cliff in a windstorm, placing the stairs in the right position, avoiding the boulders that are thrown by Donkey Kong, going down to the lava pit , going through puzzles in the lava pit, turning around in the lava pits and fighting Donkey Kong in a windstorm.

===''Donkey Kong Land''===
*<u>'''Instruction booklet'''</u> (page 15): ''At the peaks of some of the highest mountains, Donkey and Diddy will venture into the clouds for sky-high adventure.''
*<u>'''''Nintendo Power'' vol. 74'''</u> (page 11): ''Afraid of falling from high places? Donkey and Diddy hte that tumbling sensation. Help them out as they scale the towering heights of Chimpanzee Clouds.''
*<u>'''''Nintendo Power'' vol. 74'''</u> (page 20): ''Traverse the tallest peaks in Donkey Kong Land as you climb the Monkey Mountains. The peaks are packed with high altitude thrills. Explore ledges and ride automated plataforms as you weave your way through crevasses and around clouds. It's a long way to the top, so get a toehold and start climbing!''
*<u>'''''Nintendo Magazine System'' booklet'''</u> (page 16): ''These mountains don't just sit there and look mountainous, they let anybody who gets within 100 metres know they're in the rockies by dropping extremely large rockies onto their heads! Unfortunately this is the only route available between Kremlantis and Big Ape City - or so 'K Rool's Book of the Road' tells you... hey, wait a minute!''
===''Donkey Kong Country Returns''===
*<u>'''Prima Official Game Guide'''</u> (page 20): ''The Cliff is the island's sixth world and offers a variety of challenges as you progress through it. Watch out for Skellirexes and Firehead Neds as you avoid the tar pits. You will do a lot of jumping onto small platforms, leaping across wide gaps, and dodging spiky boulders. Be careful on the rickety platforms, since some will fall down shortly after you touch them.''
