"Hot, muddy and buggy July 4th hike. Crowded parking lot but not too many people on the trail itself not sure where they all where. Did it with a friend from high school and had fun despite the weather! " — bobbaker • Jul 4, 2024

"A hike of the Jay's. Molly needed just Big Jay for her NEHH. We hiked northbound along the LT and reached Jay Peak. We then followed the LT north until reaching the herd path. We then followed the herd path towards Big Jay, dealing with tree branches in the face and muddy areas to navigate. It took us about an hour to reach Big Jay. The sled attached to the tree appears to be missing. We then headed back to Jay and took a ski trail to bypass around the summit. We then hooked up with the LT and headed southbound back to the car.

"Calm and snowy day. Well trodden path with some blow downs here and there. Summit was cloud but calm. The Tower was covered in snow and ice and I didnt dare to go up past 2 flights. Great day! " — bobbaker • Jan 30, 2024

"Squirrel nest in engine caught on fire in the parking lot. Put it out before any major damage was done but visible burn damage on the hood. Apparently woke up the entire town with the 911 call of a car on fire! Only hiked up a few hundred feet afterwards to kill time before the other car came. Ended up driving the burned car 57 miles back home. " — bobbaker • May 17, 2023

"On the third day of my trip, I headed all the way up north to tackle Jay and Big Jay. Pretty easy climb on the Long Trail up to the summit of Jay, which is a ski resort. The "bushwhack" over the Big Jay was not difficult as the herd path is very apparent and would be difficult to get lost on. Once again alot of signs of a moose being on the herd path in the morning, but I never saw it. Hit the summit of Big Jay and headed out quickly as it was starting to rain. When I got back to the parking area there was a long trail thru hiker that I gave a ride to help out. " — LGH-Tom • Jun 26, 2021
