Full review

Jay Peak has been my "home mountain" for over 35 years. It has maintained the exact same feel for that period of time!
I am currently 46 yrs old and my initial instructor from 1974 is still greeting our ski club children on weekends. The wind does blow and the temperatures do dip, but for a skiiers' mountain in the east, it does not get any better. The reason: BIG SNOW!!. If quality skiing with a homey french flair interests you, please give Mr. Stengers' mountain a chance; but do not be suprised if he is out checking your pass validity!! What a super place. A word of advice for the hardcorp, avoid Saturdays after a big dump, and, of course, avoid the groomers altogethe!!!!!!! Enjoy your visit.
