Jay Peak ski area, Vermont - Skiing and Snowboarding

Jay Peak ski area, Vermont

Hmm? Jay Peak seems like it has two peaks, shouldn't it be called Jay Peaks? But other than the confusing name I have no complaints. Lots of good runs. says Brian Wright.

Jay Peak has an admirable diversity of ski trails and enough ski lifts to serve them all. The fantastic annual snowfall of 30 feet is one of the reasons this is such a wonderful ski resort. This is a greater than average ski resort featuring a sky-scraping height difference when you compare it to other ski resorts in the region. This ski

    hill has an average proportion of hard trails and an average fraction of beginner and intermediate ski trails. Jay Peak has the largest elevation difference for 26 miles. The snowy hills of Vermont are a delightful site for snowboarding or skiing. This ski resort
receives stronger than average snow every season. This ski hill has 385 acres of skiable territory, and it's all in great shape. Snowboarding and skiing in this region is loads of fun every day of the snow season. A delightful workout and just hanging out with your skiing pals attract snow folks from far and wide. The 8 different ski lifts here will get you up the slope well. With a totality of 76 ski trails to ski on; there's a splendid set to suit everyone. This ski hill's drop of 2,153 feet is a great drop. You could

be into skiing or snowboarding, or both, doesn't matter, this region has many ski mountains. There aren’t any hotels close by, but if you're prepared to drive a short length then no problem, but if you don’t have reservations, you may perhaps end up slumbering in your car. The beautiful vista of the Vermont mountains and the buzz of speeding down a slope are cause enough to come here to ski.
