BOROVETS CONDITIONS - JAN 12TH

Hi All,

Well, not much change from the conditions I posted 3 days ago. Still no snow and unfortunately still abnormally high temperatures meaning that the snow cannons still cant be switched back on. Last night it was -1 and we need it to be -4 so that in absence of 'real'snow, we can get the cannons started again!

Best skiing is still on Yastrebets (first thing if possible) and Rila reds are still ok but far from perfect. As per a previous post Borosport are still running free ...
Hi All,

Well, not much change from the conditions I posted 3 days ago. Still no snow and unfortunately still abnormally high temperatures meaning that the snow cannons still cant be switched back on.

Best skiing is still on Yastrebets (first thing if possible) and Rila reds are still ok but far from perfect. As per a previous post Borosport are still running free minbuses every 15minutes to take you to the Yastrebets slopes.

Night skiing is still very good - can get a bit icy but because they piste the runs before night-skiing starts at 6pm the first couple of hours are very good.

In general the mood in the resort is very good and it's great to see how people are enjoying their holidays regardless of limited conditions.

Keep Dancing!

Still the same Rigs, on the road by the gondola, this year they seem to be running more buses so more or less no waiting and they start from 8.30. First thing the Yastrebets slopes are still skiing really well.

Hi
Been using this bus all week- runs from just up from the Gondola- they have about 4 buses I think depending upon demand- get up early for best conditions- gets a bit slushy after lunch but still skis ok up there.
Enjoy! Very Happy
