Frontier Canyon Zone, with its canyons and cacti.
The Wild Wild West cliché is not an especially common Sonic cliché, but very easily recognised when employed. Evoking the arid lawlessness of the mid-19th-century US frontier, Wild Wild West levels will typically sport rocky gorges and cacti, with railroad features, saloons and tumbleweed are optional.
Because of their general dry and dusty nature, there is some overlap between Western and Desert cliché levels.
