Bansko - Current Conditions

Seeing lots of chat on here about Boro, but wondering if there are any feet on the ground that could give us a quick run-down on the general conditions at the moment?

T-13d for me. Smile

T-8 for us!!! check the cams on banskoblog.com or get the app, its looking good up there, there is snow cover all the way down and all the runs and lifts are open, due a big dump of snow fri/sat according to snow-forcast

Cheers Chris.
Been looking at the cams fairly obsessively (as usual)... it looks good although probably would have expected a better covering by this time... Hard to know without eyes up the slopes Smile

T-8 here. First time in Bansko and I've been away from the slopes for about 8 years, so I'm hoping there's enough snow to make it kinder on my legs!

Snowing now, fairly heavy... conditions have been better than Boro anyway due to our cannon network (224)... All runs open.. will be up tomorrow to sample off-piste, 30cm + expected in the bowl, should be epic, no queues at the moment so looking for fresh tracks Very Happy
Queues should not be an issue until half-term, so you should be ok Booze

School half terms are different in Wales/bristol area to the rest of england. Not sure about Scotland.
