Little Headwall

This is the standard exit from Tuckerman Ravine when the snow is deep. However the massive amount of water that usually flows through here often keeps this area looking more like a rushing river than a ski line. When it’s in, follow the natural drainage out of the ravine flow. Meandering riverbed skiing leads to a convex roll, like a much smaller version of the Tuckerman Ravine Headwall. Ice bulges or open water often occur here. Ski the mini headwall and join the Sherb. Due to the flowing water, this area gets dangerously undermined in the spring, be cautious!
