Hey folks,

For people in resorts Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday I would like to give you heads up.

Daytime temperatures are dropping and will get as cold as minus 20 at 2500m ASL by Tues/Wed. Add in the wind and the wind chill will be around -40C...yes minus 40C.

At resort levels 1500m ASL (ish) -10 wil be in order and a wind chill of around -23c.

Please wrap up warm and be prepared...HIP FLASKS ARE A MUST !!

Mark we all know by know, hip flasks are the first ski requirement that is packed in the case. Mine stays in my ski boots maturing well.

re: WEATHER WARNING 12th Jan

Thats good. I like a ski/snowboarder that is prepared. I feel sorry for the people that think of clothing and spend hundreds on this that and the other before they have organised the worshipped item

Blimey! - been there 7/8 years ago with similar temp and was on the old 1 seat chair lift to the left of the Rila and it stopped for an hour. I've never been so cold before - looks like it'll be like that again next week!
