Ski Bulgaria

There are many many places I can think of that I'd like to be heading right now to do some skiing. But I confess that Bulgaria is not near the top of that list .In fact, I'm not sure it's even ON the list. Wait, let me check...nope, Bulgaria is not a ski destination with which I am familiar.

 

And so I was surprised...in a good way...with this piece in the outdoorsy Stellar Magazine  on skiiing Bulgaria. But Leslie Anthony heads there and discovers, between gulps of rakia, a grappa-like liquor, that Bulgaria has a few surprises in store. Actually, I love to see new places discovered...places like Bulgaria that could probably use an infusion of tourism. Is Bulgaria a new Jackson Hole? Well, probably not. As the writer describes, it's doubtful that as Jackson someone would try to sell you an AK-47. Maybe a six-shooter, but not an assault rifle. But my curiosity is piqued and I just scribbled a word on my list of place I want to ski: Bulgaria.
