Snow cannons are working.
The snow cannons are working in front of the Rila Hotel.
Maybe they are testing out the new ones up on Sitnyakovo?

I think it looks like a nice day for a walk to go and have a look.

re:Snow cannons are working.
Hi Mark, Paul, I walked up to the top of the Sitnyakovo chair lift and the new cannons were running. On the baby slope as you come off the chair lift the cannons were blasting away and there is already good cover, but there was already some real snow there to start with.

The forecast looks for it to be staying cold at night so fingers crossed and not long to go.

Hi Del, It's an old restaurant, I have never seen it working, you may not even have noticed it. We pass it when we go walking in the summer.

I guess that now the slope has cannons it will work all season and it has been worth somebody refurbishing and opening the restaurant. Maybe it is Borosport? I expect Karen and Bobby know, I will ask them the next time I see them.
