Decent conditions again today with the Galaxy chair running.The Universe moguls are groomed which left the trail with some marbles. All else good-some icy spots but not bad. Did a couple runs off the Crawler-Milky Way and Nova had nice edgeable snow and no wind on the chair. I like to go back...

Three day report: Sunday.Skied with my wife. Enough of a crowd that we split up and took the singles line a few times, and the Rocket Triple once.Almost no lines at the Galaxy chair. Conditions were decent with some icy spots-my wife didn't like Lower Universe. Comet surprising had the best snow...

Better today than yesterday-an inch or two of natural and another grooming smoothed things out. Flat light mostly-the sun peeked out a few times, but not consistently. Ran the mini bumps to skier's right on Galaxy-sort of crusty but the fresh snow made them OK-a change from the groomed slopes...

With the overnight drop in temps, things firmed up nicely for our beer league racing. The rest of the mountain was somewhat marbly as you might expect after grooming following a thaw and freeze cycle-not bad though.Lower Northstar was great and no problem getting back to the Comet lift. Overcast...

Big change in temps from yesterday at Greek Peak. Got out about 9:15 with smooth grooming and a few slightly slick spots which softened up quickly. Beautiful creamy soft hero snow-hard to make a bad turn on it. We did Upper/Lower Northstar and Upper/Lower Universe a few times-they filled in and...

Did the Masters race at Greek today. This is sort of a conditions/trip report. Only skied three trails-Odyssey (race hill), Illiad, and Elysian Fields. All were firm, but very edgeable with sharp skis. Odyssey was perfect for racing-we had almost 60 racers, and it really held up well. Fun and...

Once again, nice pics! I gave my quads a rest yesterday (after skiing Sun.-Wed.) and did some stuff that need doing around the house. Nice to see some other Bristol skiers on here! Always looking for more contributors to the conditions reports!

Stopped by on my way down to Italy Hill. Had to pick up a couple of things for the Greek Peak race on Sunday. The rain stopped, so I decided to go out. Put up with a few sprinkles and the snow was typical rain snow-soft and edgeable. Some trails were a little chunky, but Rocket was fantastic. I...

Rain predicted for Friday morning so my ski day may be brief. No Saturday ( I think) as I've got to get up early Sunday to race at Greek Peak. Glad you like the updates. Encouraged another guy I know who just retired and is taking advantage of his free time to contribute to the reports too.

All valid points! Yes, they should run the Galaxy quad instead of the Rocket triple evenings-staffing would be the same. I'd recommend writing your complaints to Dan Fuller-he is responsive to customer dissatisfaction. There's a lot of things I don't like-I've got 4 grandkids and they all pay...

Big contrast from yesterday in terms of weather. On and off snow with a 2"-3" layer on top of the grooming. Our 12 year old granddaughter ripped (in control) through the piles-guess the brigades have paid off! Busy with lots of kids with the day off, and we quit around noon-4 days in a row left...

Surprise, surprise! About 1" of snow in at our place in the SE suburbs of Rochester when I left for our Tuesday morning beer league race. When I got to Bristol there was about 5-6" of medium powder on the slopes! Of course, we all know fresh snow isn't the greatest for racing. Made a couple of...

Depressed Bills fans (including myself) had a bluebird day to help improve their mood. Bright sunshine and groomers made for many fast trips down the slopes. No Galaxy chair today, but the conditions on Lower North Star made the skate back worth it. As expected, crowds were slim, but a few more...

Very nice write up and pictures!

Hope it's still good next weekend-I plan on being there for the NY Masters race on Sunday.

Good crowd today, but lift lines weren't bad and conditions were good.Very short almost non existent lines on the Galaxy chair, and with Shuttle open, it's easy to ski Upper Meteor and the top part of Upper Rocket then cut back over to that chair. Did a run down Comet at around 11:30 and I was...

Hopefully Gore will get the snowmaking going. The USSA Masters National Championship races will be held there March 18-22. I'm not going, but have friends who will be there.

With the forecast sunshine, I couldn't stay away even with the cold temps. I was rewarded with a bluebird day with great visibility, good eastern conditions and almost no people. A little chilly but the sunshine helped-at these temperatures with wind and overcast, I would have stayed home. Guns...

Cold (5 F) but bluebird day for our Tuesday morning race. So nice to be able to see! Skied for a while after the race with great conditions (for the NE) and perfect visibility. Unfortunately, the area above the Galaxy chair is not really filled in, so the usual tactic of flying down Lower...

Comet chair seemed to be glitch free today. Low crowds for a holiday morning-could be due to the cold and poor roads in Rochester. A couple of inches of new snow helped the surface and it kept snowing for much of the time we were there. Sun peeked out for a couple of runs including one down...
