Jay Peak tips and tricks

I’ve only been up to Jay Peak once, but it was at the end of the season when everything super difficult was closed. I’m heading up in a few weeks so everything’s probably gonna be open. The only thing people were really talking about was a 20 foot cliff on the left of the tram and that’s pretty much it. What’re the hardest lines you guys would suggest?
 
Go down staircase glade switch

But really though. Stay off goat run and you'll be fine. It's a Jerry filled icy mess.

Last couple times I've been there, all the glades right of the flyer were pretty untouched
 
Basically anything in the woods easily some of the best glade skiing in the east. Face chutes is a must I also love deliverance for some reason. green beret, everglade, staircase and beaver pond are also sick. As far as non tree skiing goes lift line, northwest passage, Can Am when its dumping, the jet is good and so is the u.n. Powerline is also super fun but I believe they changed the name to the 601. Theres some great out of bounds skiing next to poma line and in bounds between JFK and wedelmaster and then on then between ullr's and wedelmaster. Highly encourage exploring everywhere as you can ski all inbounds terrain and out of bounds terrain and ski patrol wont give you a hard time. I usually just jump into the woods whenever I feel. If your into it you can ski the backside as well and hike the long trail up if you don't want to get a lift ticket that day.

Face Chute is easy to find and fairly difficult right under the tram. Lots of good stuff to hit off there. If you like long tough glade Everglade is a good one.

There are a lot of cowboys that like to ride on the saddle. Be careful not to pump too much out of your house.

A few hints in the line above ;).
