No good news to report....temps have warmed up considerably - 6degrees today in Borovets....they are still working on the slopes and it is still 2 metres in places on Yastrebets but it is too warm for cannons and was last night.... Local forecasts say it should get colder again at the end of the week but we never really listen to them as they change all the time..
Not sure what else to say....and sorry if it's not what you want to hear but at least it's honest!

p.s Bobby ...

p.s Bobby hasn't done his naked snow dance for the last couple of nights so prob need to get him back on it....!
Not good news....Bobby has just called the lift / piste director and he said at the moment he cannot answer the question... They are planning to and they will do their best BUT it's in the hands of the temperature gods....as soon as temps are low enough cannons will be back on but it is really warm now...
Once again, sorry, but at least you know what to expect and we're not telling you it's snowing / amazing conditions when it's not.... Similarly to last season, doesn't ...
Hi Charlie,

Once again, sorry, but at least you know what to expect and we're not telling you it's snowing / amazing conditions when it's not.... Similarly to last season, doesn't look like we'll be opening the WHouse for a while saying that we may do our xmas lock in walking down the Mussala....!!!
Yeh - and tbh I only get the info and type it up as I don't really understand the whole 'snow science' and how in some places (from cannons) there is about 2metres but still there will be no skiing..... Apparently the large mounds from cannons will be pisted / flattened out but it is melting too fast...and that's why they can't answer about opening on Saturday...
I always wonder though why Bansko have had skiing since the 1st, pamporovo is open and borovets always lags behind yet I'm sure if they really worked hard they could prepare at least the yastrabets runs all the marky runs
