About 62% of the town is Forest Preserve land, which makes it the perfect place to enjoy the wilderness all year round. Many know Wilmington as the home of Whiteface Mountain, one of the highest of the 46 High Peaks and the site of the 1932 and 1980 Winter Olympics' alpine skiing events.

While visiting Jay, you'll want to stop by what is known as 'The Covered Bridge' over the Ausable River. Created in 1857, the historic bridge is just over 160' long. Out of all the historic bridges in New York State, the bridge in Jay is the last one in the Adirondacks.
