Since the start of the season, Jay Peaks has really shown itself to have the best snow out East. And with free uphill access for those wanting to skin up and ski down, this made it an easy choice to be what I consider my go-to ski hill.

188 inches of snow already, just a month into the season! Truly epic! That’s more snow than any other resort in the world at the moment. On this Monday in mid-December 2025 I decided to chase the pow pow. The 8 hour drive from my home in the Philly area was well worth it. I’ve never skied East Coast glades so magnificently blanketed in powder. Jay’s Peak is a non-pretentious affordable mountain where true skiers and boarders can rie some of the best conditions in the U.S. If you’ve never been, check it out!

I went with family and it was really an amazing trip. The hotel was great and the rooms are spacious. The advantage we had is our room looks at the water park and that was more of a fun thing to do after a long day of skiing. Staff are great but the food wasn’t perfect it’s ok. Great trip and will do it again for sure.
