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, is set to compete in the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing.As of 2010, the resort has two high-speed detachable chairlifts. The Comet Express lift was installed for the 1999/2000 season and the Galaxy Express for the 2009/2010 season. Both make a full pass in about four minutes. In the autumn they offer Fall Sky Rides using the Comet Express High-Speed Quad chairlift slowed to take 15–20 minutes. Once at the top the riders may stay on and ride, hike down the trails, or reembark at the top. The Bristol Mountain Aerial Adventure Park, a high ropes course at the top of the mountain consisting of various climbing obstacles and zip lines, was added in 2014.
