re: Just back from boro
Do you think the fatal accident was the reason for the closure of the gondola from tuesday? Do you know anyone that witnessed the accident? We thought the so called green run down from the left hand side of the resort was really dangerous especially where it crossed the other runs, especially on monday & tuesday treacherous ice, very busy & on monday it had a hole in it!!!! Still great first time ski-ing holiday.re: Just back from boro
My wife had a nasty experience the first time we went down that green run. She lost control crossing the first of the 3 runs and didn't stop until well past the 3rd. God knows how she didn't come to grief (it was only her 2nd day of skiing). Nearly put her off for life. Would have thought some fencing might have been the order of the day as well to stop skiers coming down the 3 red runs from crossing over this track (ie stop, go through a gate and start again?).

Message for new skiers though - our ski instructor (Nick from the Samokov) seemed a bit of camikaze (not sure about that spelling) type. I suspect that other instructers would have taken a bit more time showing the basics (ie how to stop would have been good!) - don't for goodness sake let this mini report put you off. I have only told half a story and the fact is that my wife is every bit as enthusiastic as me about going back to Boro for more skiing this year.
