BOROVETS CONDITIONS - 6TH JANUARY

Hi Everyone,

Not much to report but will write one anyway as I know how stressed everyone is waiting fo fly out!

Exactly the same runs are open as yesterday:

Suhar - beginner slope at top of gondola - a bit icy, but in general, still skiing well. There are a few queues up there but it's not too bad.


Rila, Rotata and Iglika runs are still open - a bit icy towards the bottom. Martinovi Baraki (the blue) is open as are the 2 Rila reds - 2 and 3. They are skiing well,. but icy ...

Rila, Rotata and Iglika runs are still open - a bit icy towards the bottom. Martinovi Baraki (the blue) is open as are the 2 Rila reds - 2 and 3. They are skiing well,. but icy in the middle, but better at the sides.

Bobby is on Popangelov at the moment - conditions are brilliant, but cold but that's a good thing as the cannons are still on.

In all, there is no major problem skiing, it's just a bit of the boredom factor doing all the same runs - if the Markudjik runs could open (not enough snow at the moment) then that would allievate the boredom issue!

Keep smiling!!

Sorry - forgot to say - Sitnyakavo (blue run at the top of the 4 man chair) is also open, but beginners are going up with the 4 man, skiing up there and then taking the 4 man chair back down.

Hi

After doing the Yastrebts slopes, Bobby then did the Rila reds - they are in pretty good condition, especially with the snow cannons / at the top.

Hi Wendi,

Sorry, missed your post. In terms of Gluten free / Vegan, you will be fine. There is a lot of veggie food around if you ask for it and also you can always have dishes with the meat taken out and just with veg instead.

If you click on my name and send me an email, I will send you a few translations so you can check in restaurants before you eat if you are worried.
