Not much help but I couldn't see any easily accessible. The trees looked (and were) pretty tight. The top when I went was windblown and often shut.

there is a severe avalanche warning in Bansko at the moment. I was told this was due to instable snow due to a lot of ice forming before the latest snow falls.

I went down under the lifts to the left of run 5 in deep powder on Wednesday and it was fantastic skiing. I wouldn't fancy trekking anywhere further afield without a guide or equipment though it's just not worth the risk.
