Every day, we highlight one of Okemo's 127 trails. Today's trail is* ####   [Gordon's Garden](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/gordons-garden) ![Gordon's Garden](https://www.okemozone.com/hubfs/OkemoZone/trails/Gordons%20Garden.jpeg) [Progression Park](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/progression-park) may be a bit much. Even if you think you're not going very fast, those jumps will launch you. Gordon's Garden is a fun, scaled down terrain park with features and obstacles for kids and those who are more risk-adverse.  For the first few weeks of the season, the area will be a continuous section of the easy trail [Homeward Bound](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/homeward-bound). At some point they get around to building the park. You can watch it watch from the the [A Quad](https://www.okemozone.com/lifts/a-quad) as it passes over. This terrain park has moved a few times since it was added in memory of Gordon Robbins in 2015. It was first named Robbin's Nest and started at the top of the A Quad. In 2021 it moved to the Jackson Gore base area. In 2022, it moved further down Homeward Bound, replacing Bull Run and getting its current name. Tree Tap replaced Robbin's Nest in Jackson Gore. ## Share this post [mailto:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.okemozone.com%2Fdaily%2F2026-01-04](mailto:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.okemozone.com%2Fdaily%2F2026-01-04) ## Keep reading [![Outrage - Trail of the Day](https://www.okemozone.com/hs-fs/hubfs/OkemoZone/trails/Outrage.jpeg?width=5395&height=4046&name=Outrage.jpeg) ### Thu, Apr 16: 15 trails (+1), ☁️ 61/78° ](https://www.okemozone.com/daily/2026-04-16) [![Sunset Strip - Trail of the Day](https://www.okemozone.com/hs-fs/hubfs/OkemoZone/trails/IMG_2788.jpeg?width=5712&height=4284&name=IMG_2788.jpeg) ### Wed, Apr 15: 17 trails (-20), ☁️ 54/73° ](https://www.okemozone.com/daily/2026-04-15) ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "OkemoZone", "url" : "https://www.okemozone.com/daily/author/okemozone" }, "dateModified" : "2026-01-05T00:04:09.105Z", "datePublished" : "2026-01-04T12:42:59.000Z", "headline" : "Sun, Jan 4: 83 trails (+1), ☁️ 7-18°", "image" : [ "https://www.okemozone.com/hubfs/OkemoZone/trails/Gordons%20Garden.jpeg" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://www.okemozone.com/daily/2026-01-04", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://www.okemozone.com/hubfs/OkemoZone/logos/okemozone.png" }, "name" : "OkemoZone" } } ```
