Rock Garden

The obvious alpine zone above Perry Merril, Rock Garden offers some of the most unique skiing in the East. In New England we mostly have either chutes, gullies or slides. This is more of a pillow zone. Hike up the Cliff Trail Gully to the ridge, and hike south along the ridge to an obvious crest of boulders. There are two prominent drop ins. One to skiers left (easiest) the other to skiers right, (steeper and blind at a right trending ramp). Drop in and enjoy this playground of drops, boulders and baby trees, down to treeline and connect with the Kitchen Wall Traverse.
