Bulgaria Ski discussion board

Hello All....

Well...I wish I could write something different each day, but at the moment conditions are practically staying the same as yesterday.
BUT there are a couple of things:
a. It is still snowing at resort level, Yastrebets and the top of the gondola, but again it is very very light...
b. The piste bashers are currently out on the nursery slope at the top of the gondola...it is still shut at the moment BUT the head of lifts (if that's what you call him!!) has said that it will open at the weekend for the new arrivals..... Can't confirm it will actually happen as it is obviously in the future, but that is what we have been told.

So, as before:
Rila and yastrebets cannons still on.Yastrebets have worked non-stop now for 4 days and as such snow conditions there are great! Rila has been running for 2 days so much better than it has been for a couple of weeks.

So...
-3 on Rila at moment, -6 on yastrebets.
Yastrebets 2 and 3 open and very good conditions
Gondola open for walkers and to ski down to Yastrebets although still have to go careful and avoid all the rocks...hence free shuttle buses still running to the 4 man chair.
Rila drags open but the one next to yanakiev is shut.
Sitnyakovo Express open again for walkers only.
All Markudjik slopes are still closed...

Hi Billy,

Certainly not god...! and know less about history / snow conditions etc than lots of people on this site - just good at typing up the 'real time' info from phone calls!! If you ask anyone they will say snow will be good Feb / March, but then this season is the worst start they have seen in 20 years...so not sure if anyone can predict it correctly!! Some of the guys on here such as Mark IOW seem to have more of idea of what they're talking about, so look out for their posts.

Sorry it that's unhelpful, but don't want to start making things up or pretending I am an expert!
