Nice pictures. I keep saying I'll check this out one of these times, but never seem to do so. Looks like a pretty unique event.

Bumping this ancient thread... we cut our skiing short on Sunday and drove down to Salisbury to check out Jumpfest (https://jumpfest.org/events/jumpfest/); and so happy we finally did!

It's a great scene. Three jumps - small, medium (under construction) and large, along with a short XC track. They have snowmaking equipment and a single groomer. It's maybe three blocks from main street in town. Such a neat little slice of northeast ski culture. Beer tent and food and bonfire and cowbell ringing - just a great event. The kids thoroughly enjoyed it.

I highly recommend it if you're in the area! Plus, the drive down 41 (Undermountain Rd) from Catamount was very pretty.
