Work on Yastrebets 1 / Popangelov

Morning All,

Started a new post on this as I'm sure you want to know what's actually happening in the resort!!

This week the guys are working on Yastrebets 1, making the link across to the bottom of Popangelov (Yastrebets 2). Whilst it shows a run on the pistemap, for the last 5 years the link has been unskiable due to too many bushes etc, so they ae now removing all the bushes, widening the path, removing all rocks, digging drainage, so that this 'run' (link) will work properly in ...
Morning All,

Started a new post on this as I'm sure you want to know what's actually happening in the resort!!

This week the guys are working on Yastrebets 1, making the link across to the bottom of Popangelov (Yastrebets 2). Whilst it shows a run on the pistemap, for the last 5 years the link has been unskiable due to too many bushes etc, so they ae now removing all the bushes, widening the path, removing all rocks, digging drainage, so that this 'run' (link) will work properly in the winter...not much, but slowly, slowly!!

They have lots more projects in the pipeline, but as before some may not happen so won't put anything on here yet as I will be shouted down for providing incorrect information even though we are in Borovets!

Will keep you updated as and when there's any more progress / new projects started.

re: Work on Yastrebets 1 / Popangelov

In some places the run / link will be over 20metres wide (they're not having fun clearing that!) and it will take a good few weeks removing the rocks, clearing the bushes etc that have overgrown from the original run.

Chris - great news. Also...following your original post, I did speak to Borosport for you (well I didn't - Bobby did!) and they will do packages for however many days you want. If you want details / contacts, let me know.

Thanks Kas,

I have sent a request to Hunters about the equipment and got their prices back, i'm just waiting on people to decide if they want to hire or take their own now!

They are also widening Yastrebets 1 and reducing the incline of the slope....
