Update on Bristol-there are strong rumors that they will open next Saturday and Sunday April 14th and 15th. Can't let Holiday Valley be open longer than them! Still decent coverage on most open slopes and assuming we don't get killer rain or warm temps, next weekend should be OK.Nice to have a patio party in the sun and warmth-today was variable with snow showers, some sun and clouds and mid 30's.

That is what I found as I'm working on the next Eastern Closing post.

Bristol - April 15 (tentative - weekend only)
I still have a few questionmarks for Swain, Song and GreekPeak. Also trying to see if Whiteface will go beyond April 15.

Holimont may be finished.  The report says "closed this week" and "it's been a great season"
Song appears to be planning to reopen for the 14th.
I'd remove Belleayre and Whiteface from the list as they clearly have not announced anything as of yet.  Still nothing from Gore or Plattekill either.

Belleayre seems to be very committed to keeping their season going as long as possible. Not unusual for them to be the first in the Cats to open as well.
I'll take boilerplate ice over wet snow any day

Based on where they are now, even with the two day warm up this weekend and some rain, opening the following weekend seems extremely doable with a good selection of terrain. Who knows maybe even a day open on the 28th off the triple, that would be incredible.

A few corrections above...

Looks like this is the last weekend of lift served skiing in New York.

Plattekill: April 15
Bristol: still to be determined for this weekend.
Gore: April 22
Whiteface: April 22

Here is this week's list...for New York and Eastern ski areas beyond NYS's borders.
