Hi Stu
They have updated it today, i looked last night and the Marky area was all showing as closed but today most of the Marky and Mussala are showing as open and looking on the Webcams the 4 man chair on the marky is running with people skiing the red to the left of the chair, 10 sleeps to go, not that I'm counting.

Hi Stu,

The Borosport site is correct today BUT it is not always accurate - often says it's snowing when it's not, doesn't always show closed runs and has different conditions so you cant actually rely on it so you are better off relying on the people in the resort! When conditions are great (eg: now) then it is always accurate!!

Ok - updated report.....

As you know 3 runs closed - marky 3, marky 2 black and Rila black. Despite snowing for a couple of days, there is not actually that much snow however the new powder has helped all the runs and it is the best conditions that we have had all season. Cannons are still on, it is -7 at the bottom of the resort and blue skies / sunshine.

yastrebets runs are skiing the best (due to cannons) although a bit 'lumpy' in places. Rila runs are also very good. marky runs ...

yastrebets runs are skiing the best (due to cannons) although a bit 'lumpy' in places. Rila runs are also very good. marky runs are a bit patchy in a few places however still skiing well. Georges run and Mussala are both ok as the rest of the Sitnyakovo runs.

Whilst conditions are in general good, operators have said that this afternoon conditions will be very icy, however most people have been sensible and got out this morning whilst conditions are at their best!

Sos for delay - sick in bed and Bobby only just rang up with the report from this morning as he's been busy teaching!

You're gonna beat me there by a day N! Yeah I thought last season that the run indicators on BoroSport website wasn't always accurate. Just hope that Musala is still open and going strong in 2 weeks time! Certainly looks good on the webcams today Very Happy
