At the moment, there's not much good news to give you and although it is said be snowing at the very top, there's too much wind so a.gondola has been shut every day except once so far this season and also b. the wind is just blowing the snow off the mountains. Sorry...!

Glorious sunshine and Very very warm in Samokov, walking round with no jacket. You can see the snow on the runs melting by the minute from the town.

We need at least 50cm of snow, and the colours on that map need to be RED! Not orange of green!!!
