I am intending to visit Borovets around 24.11.2007. I saw that it is snowing. I am intending to sky as much I'll be able to do it. Can you gave some information about sky condition, price to skypass ... and others. I hope we will see soon on it.

The lifts aren't open so I don't think you'll be able to ski at all on 24 Nov.

re: VISIT BOROVETS

I've heard 5th Dec and 15th - either way, you'll be OK for a lift. Whether there will be any snow - that is in the hands of the Gods, so get praying
