March is here and we are celebrating Happy Baba Marta. However, we are not as happy with the dry week we had. Hopes are raised for March to bring new and much waited snow and it did. Read on to see how the snow conditions in the past few days have been in Bansko.
Friday (01.03) – Baba Marta snow arrived in the upper parts of the resort. Snow started to fall after 10:00 am up on the mountain and continued to do so for the whole day.
Slopes and Snow
With no new natural snowfall over the past week and with warmer temperatures, the situation is with typical spring skiing conditions, which were: slopes were ok in the mornings and after lunch time the snow get slushy and wet. Thankfully the snow was back this morning. Started snowing after 10:00 am and it has been snowing up on the mountain all day. Raining was at the bottom in the town.
Mornings were better than the afternoons, but new snow and colder temperatures are already here.
