Beyond the music‚ we love returning to Mountain Jam year after year for all that it offers. The easy accessibility‚ not-too-big size (always just a short walk from the tent to the stage)‚ beautiful surroundings‚ amenities of the lodge (and its full bar) are a huge plus‚ and the friendly festival staff. Sure security is omnipresent and on the lookout‚ even when you're not‚ but if you're not trying to bring in an eight-pound bag of mushrooms‚ then the weekend is yours. Oh‚ and if you are trying to sneak in eight pounds of mushrooms‚ may we suggest taking the long way around next time? Oh‚ and you have a rain jacket and an extra pair of socks‚ so why stress over a little rain? Really‚ the hassles are minimal if you're prepared and the rewards … well‚ your cup will be full. And‚ to borrow a line from Bobby's encore: "may it be again." Until next Mountain Jam!...
