19th JAN - BORO CONDITIONS

Hi All,

Again, sorry for delay - I went up first thing this morning to help in the restaurant so didn't get a chance to post as it's a nightmare from the blackberry.

BUT - conditions up top were still excellent today.

Markudjik 1 - excellent conditions but a bit busy
Marjudjik 2 - closed, but lots of people were doing it
The path from Marky 1 drag to Marky 2 4 man is a bit rocky / patchy, but still fine
Suhar - excellent conditions

Suhar - excellent conditions


Rila - all slopes pretty icy, but very quiet as everyone was up top
Sitnyakovo (blue) - very good conditons and very very quiet, so perfect for those who didn't want to go up top

Harima - good conditons, but starting to get a bit patchy again
Yastrebets - excellent
Popaneglov - excellent


BUT - need more snow as will only stay like this for the next couple of days...

BUT (AGAIN!) - much colder today (hot in the sun) and was -2 this morning, but 3 degrees yesterday morning at the same time. Going up to Boro in 30mins and will let you know the temps as the night goes on....!!

Hi Kas,

Any chance of it being cold enough for the cannons to be used ?

Also, whilst I certainly don't trust forecasts, this one is for the top rather than those lower down which a lot of you look at...

Hopefully it may make you smile and be more positive (BENN!!) BUT, more importantly, Bobby's cousin (who works in the restaurant with us) has said we have to move all tables in on Thursday night because of the snow....

Hi Manc Tom,

If it stays cold which it is at the moment, they may be on - I will post later when we are there. On Yastrebets the slopes are still excellent, so the cannons aren't actually needed, but they are needed on the Rila slopes. Will let you know later.

re: 19th JAN - BORO CONDITIONS

We check loads of sites, but they're all different - but that one is usually pretty good unless it changes tomorrow...!!

George (the cousin) is maasive - a bit like the jolly green giant, but if a few feathers and some war paint will keep you happy (and us all sane) then no worries - we'll dress him up!

We have to go now as we're late (AGAIN!) but will keep you posted with temps tonight...
