HI all,
I feel a bit of a 'fraud' typing this as I am sat in London, but the details are accurate as other half 'phoned them through this morning' but this is the first chance I have had to type them up....Sorry!!
There is no real change in the conditions from my last post (Sunday) except for the fact it is still misty but snowing slightly heavier than before. IE: snowflakes are bigger, but it is still pretty light snow...not sure if that makes sense, but that was the description I was given!! The only other difference is that slowly slowly, there is more snow up top of the gondola, yastrebets 2&3 are now in excellent condition and the drag next to the Yanakiev now has enough snow BUT the lift is broken so that's why it is not working rather than snow 'levels'. They tried to fix it yesterday / today, but as of yet to no avail, but hopefully this will change and it will be working soon. To summarise:
Misty, and snowing from resort level to gondola level and also slightly heavier than it has been
Temps are also still low so both sets of cannons are still working.
Yastrebets 2 and 3 open and excellent conditions
Gondola open (only Yastrebets side) and run down to Yastrbets, now in much better condition, although still classed as 'good condition' rather than excellent / very good.
Free shuttle buses still running to the 4 man chair.
Rila drags open but the one next to yanakiev is shut - see above
Rila 4 man chair open - Martinovi 2 (red) skiiable, 'pretty good' conditions due to the snow cannons working on here, although a bit icy.
Sitnyakovo Express open again for walkers only.
All Markudjik slopes are still closed...
Forgot to say, I fly back tomorrow and am busy in the morning, so probably won't get a chance to post tomorrow morning but will start the updates again from Thursday morning...
Guys, any of you out there at the mo, will see you wednesday night, Titanic, with a straw in my pint glass...
Just down from the top. The Yastrobets runs are very good and cannons. Going good guns. It's snowing fairly heavy up there. It's all starting to shape up and rhe jocks are havin fun.
Starting to get a little concerned about Thursday and our organised trip over to Boro...
Have had conflicting reports about the top, some are saying the Markudjik are open, some are saying they are not... Borosport are as much use as a chocolate teapot for info...
Ah well, fingers crossed...
Just about to go offline as have an afternoon of meetings, and a nightmare from my blackberry, but in terms of 'moderator' do I have to be technical, an 'expert' of something...???!! If so, there's no chance!!
Otherwise, drop me an email and let me know - if it's simple and if you think it's a help, then no problem!!
