MLK Weekend 2022 at Bristol Mountain!
Sunday was a Bluebird Day early with the sun hiding how cold it was, then the storm clouds began to roll in.
Monday greeted us with 10-12" in the morning and another 4 to 6" throughout the day!
The premier ski resort in the Finger Lakes Region of New York that offers 1200’ of vertical, 2 high speed quads, & state-of-the-art snowmaki
Liftline Powder and constant Snow (top video) made it one of the best ski days I have had in the Region on Monday!
My son and girlfriend's daughter soaked up the sun on Sunday Before the Storm.
We stayed in Canandaigua, which is truly becoming an exciting place in the winter, not just the summer. We had great food, visited The Lake House and Young Lion Brewery to watch the Bills game.
The mountain had holiday crowds but with all the lifts open and two high-speed quads, there was only 1 lift with a 5-minute wait. We discovered the mid-mountain restaurant at the Morning Star Cafe area, and Wow! it was like a small Austrian or Swiss Waffle Haus halfway up the mountain tucked in the woods. It is ski-in/ski-out and had a great sun deck ( but it wasn't used, too cold Sunday/Monday too snowy) and it must be the place to be in the spring. We had Waffles, sausages, bacon, and hot chocolates and it was the perfect hearty lunch on a cold snowy winter day!
Overall great experience, it felt much closer to Vermont and the Adirondacks than anything in Western NY or in the mountains around Syracuse.
See you on the Slopes sometime soon!
