BORO UPDATE -10TH FEB

Morning everyone!

No real change in Borovets as conditions are still excellent everywhere. Yesterday beautiful blue skies and sunshine, today cold, misty and snow clouds everywhere. It is supposed to snow quite heavily today (as per the local news) but nothing yet - will update you as and when (notice I say 'when' not 'if' as I'm hoping the 'positive thinking' may bring on more snow!!

Morning everyone!

No real change in Borovets as conditions are still excellent everywhere. Yesterday beautiful blue skies and sunshine, today cold, misty and snow clouds everywhere. It is supposed to snow quite heavily today (as per the local news) but nothing yet - will update you as and when (notice I say 'when' not 'if' as I'm hoping the 'positive thinking' may bring on more snow!! Smile Saying that at the moment, whilst more snow is always good, there is plenty of it and anyone here at the moment / half-term will be more than fine.

So, in short, excellent conditions everywhere, but 3 runs still closed (see bottom)

Yastrebets 1, 2 and 3 open - EXCELLENT CONDITIONS on all 3 slopes
Fon Fon - open - excellent conditions
Gondola open and run down to Yastrebets - EXCELLENT conditions -
Nursery at top of gondola is open - EXCELLENT CONDITIONS
Markudjik 1, 2a and 2b are open, 3 is still shut - EXCELLENT CONDITIONS
MUSSALA PATHWAY - open - EXCELLENT CONDITIONS
Rila, iglika and yanakiev (Rotata) drags open - EXCELLENT GOOD CONDITIONS
Martinovi 1, 2 and 3 are open- (4 closed) EXCELLENT CONDITIONS
Sitnyakovo Express & Sitnyakovo 1 & 3 open (2 closed) EXCELLENT CONDITIONS


Closed Runs: Sitnyakovo 2 (red), Martinovi 4 (black) Sitnyakovo (blue)

Hi

The black on the rila slide is closed quite often - there's not much coverage on here and it always suffers. Not sure about the other 2 - specially marky 3, but will ask later and let you know.
