i dunno about skiing there this year... im sure mad river is closed and i dunno if even jay is still open. just check it out online first or something. i love both mountains tho. both have amazing moguls and trees.... madriver is best on a pow day or warm day since they don't groom or make snow for the most part. and jay is always good, haha. peace.

You know something that would really make me applaud? A guy gets stuck in quicksand, then sinks, then suddenly comes shooting out, riding on water skis. How do they do that?

Jay is still open. They have close to all of their terrain open. My brother was up there on Saturday.

While MRG is a kick as place to ski the line for the single chair can get really long sumtimes~like 20-30mins but its worth the wait cause the skiing there is awesome

You don't go to either mountains to ride park. Jay Peak and Mad River are amazing for freeriding. Jay gets hammered with snow and canadians.

Yeah Definately both mountains are really cool, MRG doesn't have a park (I mean why would you go to a mountain like that and want to ride park), I know Jay used to have a park but it sucked. I personally like Mad River more. Both are super sick on powder days. MRG has Paradise and a bunch of hidden trails which totally rule. Jay has around 18 trails open and Mad River is closed.

Never been to MRG but heard its amazing. But Jay Peak is incredible, last season they got 571 inches and this season they got 360+ i think. The Terrain is amazing the park is weak. Ski the face chutes at jay, their super sick and steep, their the only real chutes at a mtn in the east...i think.anyone know otherwise. your gonna have to ski it next season tho because there closed.
