Jay Peak

Jay Peak, a northern sentinel, is known for terrain that keeps one honest, much like a sharp dowser's rod. The glades here are whispered about in hushed tones, inviting those fond of navigating the timber. With ample natural snowfall, it tends to hold the white stuff well, favoring those who appreciate softer landings.

For the true border-crosser, Jay pairs well with Mont Sutton or Owl's Head, a short jaunt north into Quebec. This opens a new chapter in one's touring log, moving from Vermont's rugged charm to the more… *continental* aspects of Canadian skiing. The drives are agreeable, pastoral affairs, though mind the formalities at the crossing.

Access is granted through the Indy Pass, a boon for the intrepid traveler. Do note, however, that while its northern position often brings snow, it also brings a certain vigor to the air. Dress accordingly, lest you find yourself chattering like a winter squirrel.
