Jay Peak summary

For 50 years, Jay Peak has been known for its unbelievable terrain, incomparable glades, and abundant natural snowfall. Vermont's only aerial tramway is one of 8 lifts accessing 385 acres of terrain, including 76 trails and, new this season, 4 terrain parks for skiers and riders of all abilities. Jay Peak's boundary-to-boundary woods policy makes it a favorite among advanced skiers and riders but the glades aren't for experts only. The mountain also has the most beginner and intermediate tree skiing in the East. New skiers and riders, be sure to check out The Zone, Jay Peak's learning area, which includes 80 acres of wide, gentle, easy to maneuver trails and introductory glades. Jay Peak's Championship 18 hole golf course was added in 2006.

Visitor Reviews of Jay Peak

RB from UNITED STATES writes:

Jay Peak does get a lot of snow, no doubt, but don't expect the conditions to be anything like the Rockies. Wind scouring, periodic rain, and high skier density relative to Western resorts means you will ski plenty of nasty ice, particularly around the exposed summit area. Tree skiing is where Jay Peak shines, as the woods offers protection from the wind and holds the powder. Another plus: Jay is pretty accessible from I-91, meaning it doesn't take nearly as long to reach as you might think. There are "quaint" facilities. I might even use the work "dilapidated". Tram is nice to avoid the cold, but offers too little uphill capacity, meaning long lines. Should be replaced with a high-capacity gondola.
