getting worried about the snow coniditons

i am off to bansko on saturday, getting worried bout the conditions, some websits says its 80cm, some are saying 130cm on slopes......which best website to look at!? and not much snow forcasted for the next few days either!!!!!

re: getting worried about the snow coniditons

I think it's about 80cm(ish) on the lower slopes and 130cm(ish) on the higher slopes so i wouldn't worry to much, that's not too bad. if it stays cold and there is maybe a few light dustings of snow then i'm sure you'll have a great time!!

re: getting worried about the snow coniditons

thanks for that. whats the best website to long on for snow updates!?

re: getting worried about the snow coniditons

stop worrying Jenna,

It is a lot better now that it has been for the last while so you are lucky compared to some who have gone out maybe 2 weeks ago.

re: getting worried about the snow coniditons

bulgariaski.com and banskoski.com only have snow base measurments, so no indication of new snow or snow conditions (e.g. hardpacked, powder, etc.).

snow-forecast.com gives good snow forecasts. Go to www.snow-forecast.com/resorts/Bansko.shtml, but you'll only be able to view the 2 day forecasts unless you register.

Hope this helps.

btw: we're going out on saturday too, a bit concerned but there's snow on the web cam and all the slopes are open, so it should be OK.

Jenna I would be more worried if it said 0cm instead of 80cm
