We will be walking there in the summer so can update on progress.
Let's hope this seasons lack of snow spurs them into action.
Cannons on Sitnyakovo would be good, also on Yastrebets 1 and Haramia would be nice.

Thank you for sending us your comments. We take the opinion of our guests very seriously. We are sorry to hear that your expectations were not justified this winter season. It is true the weather has not been very cooperative and, as you know, we have had very little snowfall from the beginning of the season. Nevertheless, we used the low temperatures in the end of November and the beginning of December to make as much artificial snow as possible (and keep on doing it at any moment we have the chance) and that has helped us maintain two of the ski-centers in Borovets open. The ski slopes in ski-center Yastrebetz and ski-center Central Borovets have been groomed regularly and we believe we managed to provide good conditions for all levels of skiers - from beginners to experts. It is true, though, that with the European Cup races in alpine skiing we had to close ski run Popangelov for 10 days in February and that created problems when combined with the lack of snow in the Markudjik ski-center.
We have analyzed the situation and we agree completely with your point. In the next stages of our ongoing investment program we have included the full coverage with artificial snow of ski-center Sitnyakovo, including new water pipes connecting the artificial lake in Yastrebetz center to the ski runs around the "Sitnyakovo Express” chairlift, new facilities in the pumping station and new snow guns. We promise that for the next ski season we will have the capacity to cover all the runs in ski-center Sitnyakovo with artificial snow. This will provide sufficient ski slopes for beginners and intermediate level skiers (the Sitnyakovo green and blue slopes will be used by beginners and intermediate skiers to practice their skills), thus freeing the Yastrebetz ski-center for more advanced skiers and snowboarders. We are also planning to finish up the artificial snow facilities we started building on ski slope Yastrebetz 1.
We assure you that we take our responsibilities about Borovets seriously and will continue to invest in the future. Again, we appreciate your concern and we thank you for taking the time to write to us. We would be very glad to welcome you again in Borovets next winter season.


Best regards,

Hi
While no one can predict the conditions we had this year if this is done for next season it will make it far better for beginners and intermediates and make other slopes safer. Also it means that we may be able to get to Georges which I really missed this year.
