Trip Report:
Another NEHH bagging trip. Jay peak and Big Jay are waaaaay up there, only a few miles from francophone land! The views were utterly fantastic, I would go as far as to say they are the best I have seen in VT. It was a nice short hike too especially for two peaks! The “bushwhack” to Big jay was more a joyous easy hike along a very nicely cleared path! Loved this hike, Check out my pictures they are worth it. I did see some skiers for those wondering (they were on some of the lower peak trials, not on the big peak).
More trip report and pictures (pictures really are nice this time I swear!)
