A herd of diehards that won’t give up on winter. I wonder if their RFID pass scanned at the gate

I’m guessing you don’t ski Bristol often. Like Johnny mentioned, they certainly have their quirks. But accessibility to high speed quads, vertical and snowmaking capabilities is unmatched within atleast a 2-3 hr radius. Lines seemed more tedious a few years ago and with the onset of the gateway...

Monday was excellent! As I'm sure the rest of the week has been. I think Spring is here to stay.

Yesterday’s conditions were a reminder of how great of a season we are having comparatively. I highly doubt they will make any more snow to freshen up the surface, much more expensive to do so in March. Once we are back in a normal freeze / thaw cycle I think we’ll be fine. Lots of snow on the...

I have only skied Gore once, so it certainly doesn’t hit home much for me. But this is awesome. I could see this type of trail map humor or satire used across any type of ski area, amusement park, etc.

2/22 - Crowded parking lot but the hill seemed fairly empty in the early morning. Super groomers. Sun. They officially opened Orion’s Belt around 10am. My wife said 41 days straight of snow reported at the airport? Today was the first break. I don’t think I’ve ever seen as much snow in the...

Today was soft and pleasant from what I was told.

Cleveland Metro and over 10” of snow forecasted. What could go wrong?

This morning was arguably best surface conditions I’ve skied this year so far. The rain softened things up creating hero, velvet smooth conditions. The rain kept the crowds away as Fridays usually seem quite busy. Top of Rocket with the triple chair and Stid Hill in background is usually the...

Day 4 yesterday for me with 4” of snow. Arrived early afternoon but plenty of soft snow and “chop” out there left. The entire hill is skiing great and every edge or makeshift glade run is in play Personally, I enjoy the North end of the mountain more when Galaxy lift is not running. It keeps...

Tough timing on MLK weekend. Closed for “maintenance” described on their site. Certainly lacking some transparency as I’m assuming it wasn’t “planned”. At least they have the Galaxy Quad and entire mountain open - not usual for this time of year!

1/10/25 , Day 2 for me Arrived to sunny skies and mid-winter conditions. The way the hill is skiing and amount of terrain open feels like mid-February. They have done a great job making snow and focusing on individual trails, getting them open one by one. In the photo you can see they are...

Spencer here. I have enjoyed reading the forum and blog posts over the years. I reside in Upstate, New York (depending on who you ask, that geographical definition is very broad). I thoroughly enjoy the Finger Lakes region and all 4 seasons it has to offer. Home ski area is Bristol Mountain...
