Northern Vermont
Jay Peak
Bienvenue à Jay. Almost Canada, technically Vermont. Jay Peak sits far enough north that getting there feels like part of the trip. It gets some of the best natural snow in the East, with 385 acres and 81 trails. There’s also an indoor waterpark, which sounds slightly absurd until you’ve spent a January afternoon in Vermont.
