Editing Rocket Barrel Ride

}}

'''Rocket Barrel Ride''' is the twelfth [[level]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' It is also the second area of [[Cotton Top Cove]]. Set at a series of waterfalls, [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong|Kiddy]] must utilize [[Booster Barrel]]s ascend the level. If the [[Kong]]s miss a platform, they fall a distance down the level until hitting a platform or possibly into an abyss, the latter of which causes them to lose an [[extra life]]. Sometimes, the path can go behind a waterfall, allowing the Kongs to walk behind it. The Kongs cannot jump from behind a waterfall to progress on the path in front. [[Parry the Parallel Bird]] makes his second appearance in the latter part of the level. If the Kongs successfully take Parry across a [[No Animal Sign]], they are rewarded a [[Blue Balloon]].

About halfway into the level, the heroes should take two passages in front and behind some waterfalls. At the far left end of the area, they will make their way into a set of Auto-Fire Barrels, which will blast them to a ledge. Heading on, the group should walk in front of another waterfall nearby to notice another Booster Barrel. The barrel will drop them off near another Booster Barrel. This Booster Barrel, once entered, will raise the Kongs to a great distance, then letting them out in mid-air. Landing in another Booster Barrel, the apes will continue upwards, dodging some Buzzes, until they are shot to the letter N. Traveling to the left of the item, [[Dixie Kong]] and her partner will walk across more of the wet pathway and find a set of platforms behind a waterfall. If they hop between some Buzzes, the monkeys will make their way to an area in front of a waterfall. After getting through this small area, they will soon notice another pathway behind the same waterfall. If the heroes manage to get behind the falls safely, they will climb up a wall of dirt and cross a gap. Once they do so, they will find another set of platforms stretching behind a waterfall. Jumping upwards on each other the three pathways, they will make it to the highest of the platforms, where they will need to head into a nearby Auto-Fire Barrel. The barrel will automatically shoot them to a higher area. In this area, the Kongs will hop between two Buzzes and pass the [[No Animal Sign]] for Parry the Parallel Bird, if they lead the bird up to this point. Heading on, the monkeys will get in a Booster Barrel that will drop them off on a ledge near the letter G. Climbing behind another waterfall with a small platform, they will find a few Buzzes surrounding a Booster Barrel. After dodging the enemies, the group should carefully get in the barrel and be shot up to the level's highest point. If they travel to the right, they will find a flagpole. Raising its flag will end the level.

To the left of the Level Flag, the Kongs must pick up a Steel Barrel and lightly toss it up without it landing on a slanted platform. The Kongs must quickly jump into an Auto-Fire Barrel above a waterfall to blast all the way to the left behind Koin. As [[Koin]] faces left at the Kongs, the Steel Barrel hits it from behind, defeating it and rewarding the [[DK Coin]] to the Kongs.

Rocket Barrel Ride has two [[Bonus Level]]s, listed by type:

*'''''Collect 60 Stars!''''': After the No Animal Sign, the Kongs must go behind a waterfall, jump over a Booster Barrel, and walk down to a platform below. They can jump below into a Bonus Barrel. In the Bonus Level, the Kongs have 35 seconds to collect 60 stars. They must go across a large gap in the waterfall and blast from four Booster Barrels. When the Kongs collect every star, the Bonus Coin appears on a small platform at the rightmost corner of the Bonus Level.
