Bristol Mountain Ski Resort
New York, United States
Bristol Mountain, formally known as Bristol Mountain Winter Resort, is a ski resort located in South Bristol, New York, in the Finger Lakes region. It is located 30 miles (48 km) from the center of Rochester, New York, the nearest major city to the resort, and about 10 miles (16 km) from Canandaigua on NY 64. Bristol Mountain features many trails ranging from easiest (green circle) to difficult (double black diamonds). Bristol Mountain has a vertical rise of 1,200 feet (370 m), claiming to have the highest vertical of any ski resort between the Rocky Mountains & the Adirondacks. Bristol also offers two terrain parks and cross country skiing at the resort's summit. Also at the bottom is a ski shop and rental facility. Bristol Mountain Resort operates Bristol Mountain Aerial Adventures & Zip Line Canopy Tour, Roseland Waterpark, and Roseland Wake Park. In January 2018, two athletes who grew up in the Bristol Mountain Freestyle Program were named to the 2018 U.S. Olympic Freestyle Team: Morgan Schild (Freestyle Moguls) and Jonathon Lillis (Freestyle Aerials). Both learned their sport early under the direction of Bristol Mountain Freestyle Coach John Kroetz. In February 2022, Christopher Lillis, the younger brother of Jonathon Lillis, won a gold medal in mixed team aerials at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. He returned to compete in aerials at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy
