See you next season!

🌧️ Looks like spring is calling it—this weekend’s soggy forecast (yep, up to an inch of rain on Saturday!) means we’ll be closed and will not operate this weekend.

🎿 After 114 amazing days on the mountain, we’re officially calling it a wrap on an exceptional season of skiing and riding. Huge thanks to everyone who made it unforgettable! 💙

👉 Already counting down to next winter? 2025-26 Season Passes are on sale now at the best rates through April 15th! Don’t miss your chance to lock in the fun early.

Our Story

The Bristol Mt. Ski Patrol (BMSP) is a group of people (volunteers) who above all, love to ski, snowboard, and telemark, and share the joy of the sport with others, while we promote safety and provide credentialed outdoor emergency care, in accordance with National Ski Patrol guidelines. BMSP members come from all walks of life, and spend countless hours in training before becoming active Patrollers.

The primary purpose for the ski area patrol is Outdoor Emergency Care (OEC) and timely transportation services as needed by Bristol's patrons. Additionally, the patrol function is to educate the skiing/snowboarding public to assure awareness of their responsibilities on the mountain, with regard to courtesy and safe skiing practices, while still being able to enjoy all aspects of the sport.

Each on-duty patroller carries a radio, so everyone is kept up to date in the event of a problem. Rescue toboggans are stationed in multiple locations around the area, with two hilltop buildings and a base facility that contain additional equipment, including oxygen, defibrillator, evacuation ropes, and other medical supplies that may be required in special situations.

Why do so many become patrollers?
