Hi
On the snow cover report on here it says that skiing is still possible on a couple of slopes in Pamps but surely that cant be true due to the severe lack of snow? I've pretty much resigned myself that my first ski holiday is going to be a non ski event, must say feeling really really gutted about it. And yes I know about all the drinking fun but honestly I just wanted to learn to ski
We're not exactly the richest couple in the world so we saved hard for this holiday and Im just ...

We're in the same boat matey, go out on 3 February and gutted doesn't begin to explain how I'm feeling currently.Everyone says it'll get better, and optimism is lovely, but the facts speak for themselves.
re: Snow cover report
What date are you flying out and where?re: Snow cover report
Flying out from Dublin on Saturday (13th) so no hope that the conditions will get better for us
I never knew a lack of snow could upset me so much, honestly I could just lie down and cry.James you're lucky cause there's plenty of time for things to improve before you go and I'll keep my fingers crossed that the HP shifts and you get some snow.
re: Snow cover report
I know how u feel Ski-Novice. We flying out from Dublin on 13th aswell. Not Good re: Snow cover report
It sucks doesnt it And this may be our only holiday for a while cause we're planning on trying to start a family so cant be spashing out on any more hols. Maybe if this wasnt going to be my last holiday for a while I wouldnt feel so bad but I doubt it cause I've wanted to learn to ski for years. God I'm depressing aren't I! re: Snow cover report

Have a little faith my firend, this from BBC website:
'It was a cold dry weekend in Bulgaria so all the snow of last week has now packed down.
Conditions at Bansko (20/30cm) and Borovets (25/35cm) are similar with hard, icy conditions at both resorts. Pamporovo (10/23cm) has the best skiing on the upper slopes due to the shallow snow depth lower down'.
So although the web cam image shows a bit of snow, thats at the bottom of the resort, not the top. You'll still be ...

re: Snow cover report
well ski-novice - 25 of us are going from dublin to on 13th so we'll all make up for the lack of snow
re: Snow cover report
ski-novice and sharon see numbers and votes chatre: Snow cover report
Thanks Matt
And Elaine I hope to make the meet but we're going with another couple so I'd better check with them before I comitt to anything. But if there's 25 of you I'm sure I'll spot you in the airport! Or at least somewhere round the resort. Where are you all staying??
