Why the bad snow reports for Borovets???

Hello All

Just reading some of the smow conditions at Borovets

Going there with my family Feb 7th

Most sites say there is 100cm at top and 50cm on lower slopes, how can that be bas snow conditions???

I have skiied in the alpes on a lot, lot less than whats at Boro and its been fine.

Is it that Boro dont look after the slopes like the alpes do?

Just struggle to see how 1mt of snow can be almost un-ski able as some seem to state?

Cheers all, happy skiing!

Just got back last night.

The runs up top of gondola are not too bad its the runs to resort that could do with a little snow know. Don't think their snow making is as good as the Alps. Sure you'll have a great time though.

If it is better than any of the indoor slopes in the UK then I will be more than happy. Very Happy

Writing this from the Rila, still haven't been to the top, but it's really not bad. A bit frosty in places and a couple of bare spots but not much. Very skiable and crowded this weekend, probably better Monday on. Don't worry, it's fine. If some more snow comes as predicted it'll be perfect.
