Bristol Mountain Ski Trail Map - Layered Wood Wall Art
by Mountaincut
The highest vertical between the Adirondacks and the Rockies, now on your wall. Mountaincut's Bristol Mountain Ski Trail Map is a layered wooden wall art piece featuring hand-traced ski trails expertly laser cut from premium birch and/or walnut plywood, a handcrafted tribute to the Finger Lakes resort that packs big-mountain vertical and Olympic-caliber programs into the rolling hills of upstate New York.
The Finger Lakes' Premier Mountain, Captured in Wood
Set in South Bristol, New York, about 10 miles from Canandaigua and 30 miles from Rochester, Bristol Mountain is the leading ski destination in the Western Finger Lakes region. From a base elevation of 1,000 feet to a summit of 2,200 feet, Bristol delivers a 1,200-foot vertical rise, the highest of any ski resort between the Adirondack and Laurentian Mountains of the east and the Rocky Mountains of the west. That vertical is spread across 138 acres of skiable terrain with 34-plus slopes and trails, served by five lifts including two high-speed detachable quads that reach the summit in about four minutes. Snowmaking covers essentially 100% of the terrain and 96% of trails are lit for night skiing, so conditions stay reliable and the day stretches long into the evening. On a clear day, the views from the summit reach out over the Bristol Hills and Canandaigua Lake. This handcrafted map captures every trail across all three sections of the mountain in beautiful layered wood relief.
Every Trail, Every Section, Every Memory
Bristol divides neatly into three sections, all served by high-speed lifts and all feeding back to the base area. The terrain breaks down to roughly 32% novice, 50% intermediate, and 18% advanced, giving every ability level room to grow. The southern face, served by the Morningstar lift, offers welcoming family and beginner terrain, including one of the best long green descents anywhere, a run that can take a novice ten to twelve minutes to complete. The central portion is the steepest, home to multiple black diamonds and Comet, the mountain's only double black. Rocket is Bristol's signature run, a wide black diamond with a beautiful view of the Canandaigua Lake valley, while mogul skiers gravitate to the bumps on Upper Meteor and traditionalists love the winding New England character of Southern Cross. Two terrain parks, an advanced and a beginner, serve freestyle riders, and Nordic loops at the summit add cross-country skiing to the mix. Bristol's ski school is among the most expansive in the region, with six alumni on the U.S. Freestyle Team and two who made it to the 2018 Olympics.
Exceptional Craftsmanship, Made in the USA
All Mountaincut wooden trail maps are precision laser cut and etched, hand-stained, and finished in the United States using birch and/or walnut plywood. The two-layer construction creates a rich, dimensional look where the mountain's ridgeline and trail network stand out in beautiful relief. Hanging hardware comes preinstalled, so your new trail map will be on display in minutes.
Because each piece is crafted from real wood, no two maps are exactly alike, with natural variations in the grain and stain giving every piece its own character, just like a crisp evening under the lights above Canandaigua Lake.
The Perfect Gift for Bristol Mountain Devotees
