Bansko 16th March? Snow?

I landed in Sofia 3 days ago. I can get a decent apartment for next to nothing on 16th-23rd. What's the chances of decent snow then...is it too late?

I reckon there will still be runs open by then - I've been out around the 15th before and although it was lovely and warm in the sun the runs held up pretty well, aparet from the usual slush at that time of year...

Of course mother nature is fickle - but I would have thought worst case some of the lower runs might get closed - the resort doesn't shut until early April, unless something freakish happens.

That's the week we are out. An hoping for good snow too.

One thing we have been in April a few times and its been heavy snow and quiet so good. Likewise have been half term and that was superb too but busy.

Enjoy.
