I for one really hope the new lift will be running this year, so I can just walk to the lift in morning !! Guess you could say I have a vested interest !!
I would also love there to be 6 months skiing / boarding - realistically I know this wont happen, but I can always dream !
I'm the same as you Helen, also have an interest and would love to see the Bulgarians make a success of it. Plus I would like to see the variety of slopes increased.
Fact, Daniel - who said anything about fact. Let me take you back to my first post when I said "The claim of the Project is that it will offer 6-months almost guaranteed skiing on he Perelik ..." the operative word here being "claim" - but again I state that this is the opinion of local people.
And, by the way, who the hell are you to feel that you should be the judge of what is fact and/or fiction when you are clearly not in possession of the final details or outcome of this ongoing ...

Mr Jeffrey, at the risk of letting you think that I am stumped for a reply, I have decided not to enter into further dialogue with you or waste any more time on insignificant people and issues.
Andie as an admin on here it is my job to look and check postings thats who the hell I am. When something is posted up like yours I will not sit back and let it go un challenged. I know that 7000ft is not high enough because Bulgaria does not get the kind of snowfall that the Alps does or North America.
I merely pointed that out to you, but you seem to think you know it all so good luck skiing in May 2030 or whenever thay finish it.

I also have invested in Stoikite, we went ski-doing on the cross country/biking track just 5 minutes up from Perelik Palace in March and it was a different world to the other mountain, white trees and bags of snow, I have pictures if anyone wants to see them. Our mini bus driver told us the snow stays till may up there. I was sat in the front seat, I didn't ask him, he just told me loads of info about the village. He said it will be the next ski station.
I'm going over in July to bike around the area and see whats going on and how they are getting on with the lift and slopes etc. If anyone who has an interest in it I will be posting photo's in my gallery on mybulgaria site, there's a few pics on there now and I have a few others to put on.
