re: Bansko Ski Events

Pretty sure there is nothing major this year - wheras the last 2 years there have been FIS events which have meant closures.

On Banskoski.com it says there is something this early next week:

28-29 January 2013 – KAPPY Cup, FIS races with SL, 1 GS

Not sure of the scale of this - but it doesn't sound anythiong like the scale of the previous years - plus looking on the webcams, no stands being built...

Sure you will be fine - if not for all of your stay, then most of it.

Its BG junior championships (Kappy is a fruit drink).. It will be a seeding race so will be quite important to the competitors.. likely they will use Tomba, but just the edge, and should not interfere to much with you hurtling down there...
