Big Jay, Mountain summit in Vermont, US

Big Jay rises to 3,786 feet in elevation within the Green Mountains range, forming part of a connected ridge with Jay Peak and Little Jay.

The mountain's eastern slope experienced unauthorized modification in 2007 when individuals illegally constructed a ski trail, leading to habitat protection violations.

The peak belongs to the New England Hundred Highest list, drawing hikers who maintain a summit register to document their mountaineering achievements.

Hikers access the summit through an unmarked path branching from the Long Trail near Jay Peak, requiring careful navigation through natural obstacles.

The mountain serves as the natural border between Franklin and Orleans counties, with its slopes feeding into both Jay Brook and Hannah Clark Brook.

Location: Vermont
