Weathering Heights

Weathering Heights (くうちゅう だいようさい lit. Big Sky Fortress in Japanese) is the twentieth level and is the last level of the fourth warp room in Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex.

It takes place in an airship in the sky. If the player looks out the window at the end of the level, he/she will see that the ship that Crash is located on is on fire. This level is the second to have an invisibility crate in the game. In time trial, the Crash Dash helps in the sections with spinning blades. After completing this level, the player will move on to the Lo-Lo boss fight, called Atmospheric Pressure.

Exterior
Through Action Replay, this level is revealed to take place inside an airship fought in the cut glider level, where Crash would fight twelve of them in his glider.

Trivia

 * It is believed that the Cut Glider Level would have lead to Weathering Heights, since both of them are obviously linked to one another. One of theories suggests that Crash has shot down the turrets so he could safely land on the airship and go inside. However, the level never made it to the retail version and its interesting approach was ultimately scrapped in favor of the more classic level warping system.
 * Its name is a reference to Emily Brönte's drama Wuthering Heights.
 * The level is almost like going through a plane bridge.
 * The name of this level is the only level name in the air warp room that has something to do with the air.
 * This is the only level in the game to have one gem and is completely platforming.
 * This is one of only two levels in the game to feature invisibility crates, the other being Fahrenheit Frenzy.
