I'm a college student in Rochester and I went to Bristol last season and I thought it was alot better than where I came from..  I thought the park was pretty decent.  I missed the last two months of the season because I fractured my fibula..( did I miss any good things in those two weeks? ie. events, park features) That shit sucked, but I'm hyped to go back and have fun!  So how many of you go to Bristol? ( I think I saw a few newschoolers there last season but I was new to that area so I wasn't sure..)

I used to work in Greece and would ski there on the weekends. The park is great. I try to get out there once a ski season though.

Does Bristol have any good tree skiing that I somehow missed when I used to ski there?

there arent really any official tree trails, but if we get a lot of snow there are places you can go tree skiing and its pretty fun since not a lot of people know about it

Where were the tree trails again?  I believed that they were on the right side of galaxy express near the top of the mountain?

bristol is pretty decent for where its locaterd. i was up there almost every weekend last year. ya there are some really good tree trailsbut the only problem is is that there arent any actual designated trails. the trick is to just jump off the trails and into the woods and work your way down. the far right side near that new lift has a ton of sweet spots but even the woods to the upper left of the main quad are really fun if theres fresh snow. theres even a few cliff drops that are actually pretty decent too
