There are three instances of the name Rocky Mountain in the Mournes. This one is the neighbour of Hen Mountain and Cock Mountain near Hilltown. The summit is less obviously rocky than that of neighbouring Tornamrock, but the northern and western slopes   Rocky Mountain is the 815th highest summit in Ireland.

by eflanaga  19 Jul 2007 Rocky Mountain was one of the first Mountains in the Mournes I climbed back in 2004. I have climbed it on a number of occasions since, usually as the first or last summit in a particular circuit. The picture below was taken from the summit back in September 2004. Rocky on this occasion was the last of a short circuit that started at Leitrim Car Park and took in Altataggart, Pierce's Castle, Tornamrock & Rocky. There is a small cairn of stones on the summit but the picture I took off that was out of focus. The picture looks over Altataggart & Tievedockaragh with Carlingford Lough & The Cooley's visible (centre.)
