Spiral Mountain (Earth-5819)

Spiral Mountain is a location in Wumpa Island, one of the Tasmanian Islands, which appear in every Crash Bandicoot game aside from the first one. Its name is derived from the large spiral shaped peak at its center that is surrounded by a small lake. In Crash Bandicoot: Warped, the grasses were destroyed by Doctor Nefarious Tropy and Doctor Neo Cortex' minions to power the Time Twister Machine.

From Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex' Revenge onwards, Crash Bandicoot starts most of the games at Spiral Mountain, which act as a tutorial for new players, teaching them basic controls and moves. Crash lives at the Bandicoot House, located in the base of the mountain with a pathway to N. Sanity Beach, alongside his younger sister Coco, adoptive older brother Crunch, and Aku Aku.

Trivia

 * Spiral Mountain is the location which appeared the most in the Crash Bandicoot series, appearing in every game except for the first one.
 * Additionally, the Spiral Mountain theme is the most prominent musical cue in the series, havig been remixed ever since its first appearence in Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex' Revenge. This has led it to be considered by fans as the actual Crash Bandicoot theme.
 * The Bandicoot House is inaccessible in every game except for Crash: Mind Over Mutant, though its interior can still be seen in many of the games.
