Snow Condition in Borovets

Hi going to Boro a week on sunday, what are teh snow conditions like t the moment? a post last night stated they were bad and lmost unskiable. Is this true? looking at the ski club website it states the depth is better than average, if somebody is out there now please put my mind at rest
Thanks

I spoke on the phone to our regular instructor only last night and this is what he said.

"the nursery slopes infront of the Rila are getting slushy but snow is for forcast in the next week. Up at top station, the gondala, there is 3 metres of snow very good conditions"

THREE METRES OF SNOW !.

So relax folks

Sorry Rich did'nt mean to offend. Smile Looking at your hits 308 you may know something about winter weather in Borovets.
As for Boroveteran 130 with a name like that he would know what conditions may be like aswell.
Myself I tend to go with what ever mother nature chucks at you, although I have bought new skis this year and if conditions are poor/rocky I will be hiring skis to save mine Very Happy

S.P. White Majic tomorrow. cant wait.
