Snow is looking good, 40cm forecasted at the top this week and 24 at the bottom is plenty...
i'll be there in one week!!!

And in answer to two main runs in front of the Rila Hotel have snow canons on them (the ones which used to be lite for night skiing...)

re: Snow cannons in Borovets?

It was forecasted 40cm for this week, and then it's going to stay well below freezing for the foreseeable future, (due to the high pressure) so the snow will not melt.
I've also got the up most faith and confidence that the piste bashers in Boro will ensure that snow from the top is brought to the bottom over night when it's needed. It was just making sure that it was at the top to take that was important!!

Swish, swish here i come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Razz
