Rattlesnake Gutter, Protected natural area in Leverett, Massachusetts, United States.
Rattlesnake Gutter features a boulder-filled chasm measuring three quarters of a mile long and one eighth of a mile wide.
The town acquired the 40-acre Rattlesnake Gutter Conservation Area in 1990 with financial support from local organizations and community members.
The Leverett Library displays Erastus Field's painting of Rattlesnake Gutter, documenting the historical recreational use of this natural formation.
Visitors can reach the site by following Montague Road from Leverett Town Hall and continuing onto Rattlesnake Gutter Road to designated parking areas.
This geological formation likely emerged from glacial meltwater flowing through a fracture in the earth's crust, creating a deep natural ravine.
