First rate mid season snow in Bansko with all pistes open and in excellent condition. Fresh snow and a lack of pisting left the top blues looking more off piste than on piste which was tremendous Ffun but possibly a bit sticky for learners. Fun park looks in good shape and was busy gathering victims. The world cup has left Tomba in such good shape we'll still be skiing it in August. Pole lines are superb with plenty of chutes and soft snow, great soft snow/powder in amongst the trees and a dreamy little bit of wind blown powder just above the top of the Tomba lift - only enough for a couple of turns but I never needed more than a few strokes.....

Weather cold and cloudy with sunny patches meaning the snow stays ship shape all day. A little busy on the blues with the classes but otherwise not too full. Forecast looks good for the next week - cold but only a little new snow - but then getting warmer. Tomorrow morning's going to be an absolute cracker....

All in all, no reason to complain. Now there's a thing.
