Canandaigua,
NY (November 20, 2008) – Bristol Mountain Winter Resort announced today
that Friday, November 21st will be the first day of operations for the
2008-09 winter season.
The Comet Express Detachable Quad Chairlift will be operating from 9
a.m. to 5 p.m. allowing advanced level skiers and snowboarders access
to the Upper Rocket and Lower Rocket trails. Access to the chairlift
will be restricted to advanced level skiers and riders as beginner
terrain is not accessible at this time.
Bristol Mountain Marketing Director, Troy Cusson said, “We are very
happy to report that the recent cold temperatures and natural snow
combined with the hard work of our snowmaking crews have allowed us to
open much earlier than anticipated.”
Bristol’s Mountain Manager, Ken Keenan noted, “Snowmaking operations
will continue as temperatures allow with more terrain opening as soon
as possible.”
Bristol Mountain will be open daily 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. as well as
operating noon to 4 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day. Night operations, with
extended hours until 10 p.m., are tentatively scheduled to take place
