Favorite quote:

After the the helicopter crash, people asked me  if I was going  quit skiing and that  tough never crossed my mind it’s not easy to give up a lot to get what you want but

Being a skier is all I know, I would not know what else to do

Ski Park Kartala

Last weekend my friends had a great idea, they proposed to visit small and very unpopular resort in Bulgaria called “Ski Park Kartaka”. The resort have just two lifts – one drag lift and gondola lift, which was recently placed(last year as far as I know).

The altitude is high enough to get fresh snow even in February, the lowest level is approx 1100, while the highest is ~2000m. The gondola took you the highest point in 15min from which there are plenty of choices. You can go downhill skiing on the slope or took thee freeride. Around the slope there is a lot of big rocks and natural jumps. The back country starts a litte bit flat and boring but just a hundred meters down it became a real pleasure.

Last but not less important fact is Blagoevgrad city,  just 27km away from the slope, You can go back in the city for some night life in 40min or even take an hotel in the city.

Here are some pics from the weekend trip.
