I was in Chepelare last sunday and didn't see any vestige of snow in the town. No skiing conditions there.
Pamporovo should be a little better, because its pistes are higher in the mountain.
All in all, a dead season.

No skiing possible in Chepelare but the resort mid to higher level runs should be fine. Try the south blue - its been nigh on perfect throughout the season despite the dreadful lack of snow.

re: in bansko now

so I should pack the bike for the 10th March then ? Also in the Grand (for the same reason!)

would love to get a decent review on Bansko and the Grand when your back! if you can email some pics of the hotel/resort that would rock!!

also, just how close is the hotel to the gondala station ?

re: in bansko now

have you all pre-booked your holidays very early cos the very easy thing to do is ...just change direction white off the losses and have a decent skiing somewhere else .isnt that what you are all going to do on your ski holidays and after that wait all the way until the next year
