Bulgaria Ski discussion board

this is a non bias account of skiing in bansko/ bulgaria.
just returned from a week in bansko and again it was a let down . first two days sun/mon the conditions were ok but as the week went on they got worse and worse. if you like skiing on rocks then this is the place to go. so glad i hired my kit . i would be in tears if it were my own. the base layer on most runs was only two inches thick at best and rapidly getting worse . by lunch the runs were more like moguls the hammer going through your legs was unbearable. the amount of ice on some runs was not pleasant due to the runs melting in the day and freezing at night . the food is slop.my dog eats better. the only plus point is they have sorted out the queing problem .

came back yesterday. dont know if you have been before. slopes red 8 and seven are about 300mts long takes about 30 secs to complete . i am still a fairly novice skier and me and my 12 yr old son completed resort in less than two days . the best run was blue 5 but split down to monda lift . this was fine first thing but couldnt cope with the hammer and soon was just lumps of snow with an ice base and rocks . the good thing this year compered to last is there are less queues so you can get around better. the runs seemed to change hour by hour. but gradually getting worse. they need at least three foot so they can make another base
