re: bansko update

Have you actually been?????
Me thinks not!!!!!!
6day lift pass only went up 3Lev from last year and the season pass is half the cost.
Food and drink pretty much the same as last year.
4runs are open at the minute, youcan ski the ski road back to gondola and more runs will be open soon. its still very quiet here though. Balkans 1st flights come today so lets see what they bring.

re: bansko update

Balkans 1st flight arrived Saturday and they have only been skiing on the 4 open slopes, so unless there has been more snow I doubt they will open more runs yet.

It's quite concerning for ulen for the ski area to be so quite so close to xmas!

there was only 4 runs open when i was there, but that was enough for me! didn't do the black run tho!!
it was snowing most of day on friday on the slopes!
it was my first snowboarding holiday and i had a fab time!!
lions pub is a must, lasagne is yummy!! and the apple crumble too!!
hope anyone going has a fab time, i'm jealous! want to be back on the slopes ...
