Skiing
“A good omen for future snowmen.”
While the Boston forecast calls for summer-like temperatures this week, our Vermont neighbors are already seeing signs of winter.
Jay Peak Resort in Jay, Vermont, posted a video on social media Monday showing its first flakes of snow, writing, “A good omen for future snowmen. Catch our first snow sightings of the season near the summit on Sunday, September 8th.”
As promising as the video looks, skiers and riders must be patient as the mountain typically doesn’t open for skiing until the Friday after Thanksgiving, a decades-long tradition.
Jay Peak Resort was named the best ski resort in Vermont by Boston.com readers earlier this year. Boston.com readers named Jay Peak’s Green Mountain Flyer Quad, nicknamed “The Freezer,” the coldest chairlift in the region.
What’s more: Jay Peak was named among the best ski resorts in the U.S. by Ski magazine and one of the most affordable ski areas in North America by HomeToGo.
