re:Pamporovo Conditions?

I'm out saturday so can let you know first hand on Sunday I'd no one else gets back...

Otherwise looking at the webcam still plenty of snow, and the website is now showing 15/18 runs open, the most all season by the looks of it, and with a foot of snow forecast over this long weekend, conditions should be amazing Smile

re:Pamporovo Conditions?

Currently raining in the resort,but the temps are dropping and snowing in between the raindrops,if that makes sense!

As considerably colder up top this will be snow.Snow due for this evening and Sun / Mon.

Temps are due to fall here down to -10c.

Visibility not great currently

I would give it a 'punt'

Happy Skiing Jody

Hadn't checked the webcams today.. Didn't realise how heavy the rain is down by Malina and in the town, the other cams seem to show heavy snow though, and the temperature will drop a bit in a few hours hopefully as forecast and will be great. Looks like the resort has closed early for the day!?

Snowing now in the town and a lot heavier up the mountain they have forcasted a foot of snow at the top and about 8 inches in the resort overnight, also temps are dropping for the week ahead so the snow that falls now and the week coming should be well protected. The town looks beautifull what a difference the white stuff makes.

re:Pamporovo Conditions?

Also what is the situation with run 7, as we are staying in the castle apartments... looks like a 250m or so walk up to the main ski area, or ski down number 7 and get the chairlift up to the main ski area... i know it says closed, but someone said a week or so ago that it was open and they have skied it, so just wondering, as even if it's closed, i'm sure it's still skiable?

thanks for the help Smile
