So...one Saturday morning in Seli Ski Resort.
Seli is one of the oldest resorts in Greece
Long,history and tradition...
Last Dec. i met in Kronplatz two old fellows, from Germany who worked in German School in Thessaloniki almost 30 years ago, and they told me about Seli....
Nowadays the resort has 11 lifts. One doublechairlift and 10 platelifts.
Unfortunately last 4-5 years the resort has problem with snow....Hopefully that the project with artificial snow will start operating in next years and the resort will be open more days.
So...
+ excellent slope condition for 25-30 cm of snow...Excellent...even few spots where grass or stones....
+ from 9-11 almost nobody... 0 waiting time
+ friendly and professional personnel
+ nice open space ideal for carving practice
- not so much snow...
- last week the high temps make the situation worst
In two hours, i made 10-11 descents...
So, quality or quantity? What is better?
30 cm of excellent snow, with few people?
or
130 cm of snow, powder, but with terrible grooming and long wartezeiten?
however...few photos...
