'''Glitter Gulch Mine''' is the second world in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''. | '''Glitter Gulch Mine''' is the second world in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''. This old mine shaft is owned by the Winkybunion sisters located in the [[Plateau]], inside is a large underground cavern filled with mountains of colorful, glittering gems and wondrous rock formations known as glitter.<ref>M. Arakawa. ''Banjo Tooie'' instruction booklet, Nintendo, 2000, p. 23 - "'''''GLITTER GULCH MINE''': In the dank, dingy depths of the hags' gem mine you'll find a surprisingly friendly welcome from a lonely old prospector and a mad caged bird. But as you negotiate the meandering underground river, funble in pitch black caverns, and blast your way into claustrophibic tunnels, the local shovels, maverick boxex of TNT, and deranged hillbilies will take none too kindly to your intrusion. Along with rickety handcarts and a homesick flying saucer, yoy'll find Chuffy the train, who may need a little help before he can resume his unique service.''"</ref> The cavern was turned into an ore mine and filled with an intricate system of mine tracks. The mine was long since abandoned though, leaving behind only [[Canary Mary]], [[Bullion Bill]], and many [[Billy Bob]]s. | ||
Down even deeper, beneath the actual mines, is a complex network of tunnels known as the [[Ordnance Storage Challenge|Ordinance Storage]]. Small, dingy, wooden shacks (such as the [[Power Hut]], [[Crushing Shed]], and [[Prospector's Hut]]) are littered all throughout the mine. Parts of the mine (especially underground) are very dark and require the use of generators to power up the lights. | Down even deeper, beneath the actual mines, is a complex network of tunnels known as the [[Ordnance Storage Challenge|Ordinance Storage]].
