Just about enough snow, but the lower slopes tend to remain in the fog and so are pretty icy. Higher up this weekend has been cold and hard, softening by late morning but eminently skiiable for almost all of the day. 1100-1400 hrs actually pretty excellent on the Yastrebets runs at the top but there are too many people by the early afternoon. All in all, probably as good as you'll be getting in Europe at the moment. Could do with more snow (couldn't it always?) though.

re: Borovets any comments welcome on ski

I agree with Mat, I left the resort yesterday and it badly needed snow as the greens and blues on the top of the chair lifts were beginning to get dangerous with the snow melting and some of the pistes turning to Ice.

I saw one child going down a slope, hitting grass and falling off his skis.
