THE 7 BEST DIRTBAG SKI RESORTS

– JAY PEAK, VT

Most folks travel a long way to ski here for good rea­son. It has the MOST snow in the North­east thanks to the Jay Cloud and the micro-climate cre­ated by the pass. While Stowe also boasts great Back and Side Coun­try access, the lines are way too long, the tick­ets are expen­sive and the trees are often tight. At Jay, the lines are short, the tick­ets are cheap, and there’s sim­ply noth­ing quite like pulling high speed GS turns in thigh deep pow­der deep in the woods. If you learn the moun­tain you can eas­ily spend the day ski­ing pow­der turns all day even a few days after a good storm. – TheClymb.com
