Starting along the well maintained Depot Camp trail, the terrain slowly gains in elevation. Just over one mile, the Goodrich rock trail becomes steeper and winds through a glacial erratic boulder field until it reaches the largest boulder. Climbing to the top of Goodrich rock offers fine views of the Valley. This is the perfect hike for those looking to enhance their winter hiking skills at an easy pace with a certified guide. This program is carried out by the municipality of Waterville Valley to help build New England residents' skills in safe winter hiking practices.
