Does anyone have anymore news on the drag lift situation for Boarders. I assume as they 1 man lift is not running, that part of the mountain is closed off. If they aren't letting us on the drag lifts at the top either, whaere can we play??re: Drag lifts in Boro
YOU ARE ALLOWED TO GO WHERE YOU WANT with your board, don t worry.The only problem is that the drag lifts are too fast and the ground is not groomed, so prepare to fly !!!!

There is one chair lift in Borovets (No 2 on the map) on the hotel Rila side, which takes you up to the red runs and one green (which is just a narrow path). Also on this side there was the small drag lift which you can see in the picture, which isn't numbered on the map as they call it a baby drag as it only goes up a short distance, (where the group of people are stood). Past the chair lift is one more small drag lift (baby drag) - these were the only lifts working last week on this ...

Over to the gondola side - queue up first thing for approx 1 hour. Takes you higher up the mountain. There was a small drag lift just behind the gondola (baby drag not numbered) and two further drag lifts 8 & 9 on the map. I think number 10 was open but didn't try it as this side, (to the right of the gondola) was covered in small rocks - No-one seemed to be maintaining the slopes.
If any of you are taking your own ski's or boards please be wary as you are likely to return with big chunks out of them.
