Yes, it's happened to all of us, so we have to help out when we can :-)

That is the essence of alpinism. As long as we have each other, we are not alone. The mountain is a hostile but beautiful environment, that is to be encountered as a collective. Good sportsmanship!

He wasn't exactly the most thankful of people though.

Thanks for that, accomplishment is a good word to describe the feeling...

The unpredictable ones, I try to keep my distance...

The problem is, most of the time in this resort the beginner lift doesnt work, so you have no other option but to go all the way up. And the biggest problem for the beginner is the moguls around minute 3, there is no other way down except through.

@@dioritbajrami8283 that's a black run, so not really suited to beginners. I see so many struggle there...

It’s cheap for a reason, not sure I’d be happy using them. Years ago the Italians got a lot of grief for cheaping out gondola cables, this place looks like it’s run on a shoestring.

Yes, lack of investment at this place but somehow I think they do maintain the remaining two functioning lifts properly, As for the others, they look beyond repair, which I will cover in another video...

@@ChasingSnow it’s a bit bad they list lifts that are non functional

Politics has kept this place the way it is but I have heard this may have finally been unblocked and investment could be on the way. It has great potential as it's the highest in the region, while one part extends into Northern Macedonia, which wasn't a problem when Yugoslavia existed. Let's see how things go in the coming years...

I think the map is from a time when everything was functional, I do hope they get some good investment soon. I remember the first time I went there, looking at some sites on the internet to get an indication on status. Once I arrived I found everything closed and realised the sites have have not been maintained for years...

Happy you enjoyed it Olena and yes, safety is a priority... I saw a lot of crashes that day...

Yes, not too bad and it's all natural.

That's what's needed if things are going to change...

True, like time stood still...

Hoping conditions are good... enjoy....

@@ChasingSnow ye they wear relly good somhow it was super sunny and i was sweating

@@GentleLettuce yes, it can get like that when skiing, especially late season...

Yes, cheers! :-)

I think the nearest airport is Priština.

@@ChasingSnow ah prishtina, republic of kosovo. thx.

Yes, lots of potential and it can go much higher. Some lifts are beyond repair but if they can get the ones to the peak working, that would be great...

@@ChasingSnow The lift "Red Rock" is most definitely repairable, it sends you to an amazing piste, even tho its been 3 years since brezovica has been Kosovo's property i don't think they have any plans to invest in Brezovica.

@@leartbegolli2545 I suppose we just have to wait, maybe some external party will decide to invest. There are plenty of people visiting so I think the investment will pay off.

There are only two functioning lifts, the others have been neglected or abandoned. The resort has not recovered since the Kosovo war back in 1999.

Yes, I have some videos from Krvavec, a resort close to the capital Ljubljana... the playlist is here kzfaq.info/sun/PLbGz-cgOwmcuRykIPOCjE4E5akwVIis5Z I've also skied at: Kanin - Sella Nevea/​Bovec, which extends into Italy. Mariborsko Pohorje - Maribor Kope I find they have lacked investment and in some cases, they are quite low so lacking snow. Planning to ski Vogel on my way back to western Europe if conditions are good. There are plenty of resorts there but generally quite basic...

I'll have to look into it, that's why I have the question mark after Cheapest? and I would like to know if there are other cheaper places. Do you have a link to the pricelist?

It's all the same...

I'm skiing the Balkans, so in the area, going to Bansko in Bulgaria...

You've skied there?

@@ChasingSnow No, I didn't ride there. But if I had ridden at least 1 time, I would not have returned 2 times.

@@slawyan80 It's wild, good off-piste but on my way to Bankso so dropped by...

@@ChasingSnow Bankso or Bansko?

@@slawyan80 Typo, yes, Bansko... Bulgaria 🙂

I would say yes, I did see some grooming lines at some parts...

It's just the video editing software. Do a search on the Internet, there are many videos on this depending on which software you choose..

​@@ChasingSnowблагодарю

I was thinking about the skiers there and I think a lot of them are gutsy beginners... put on some skies and see how it goes, not realising how difficult some parts are but none-the-less giving it a try...

We can only hope... things move slowly in this part of the world...

@@ChasingSnow Where we grow up it's so Corrupt sadly all this beauty not used to it's biggest Potential

@@iown. Fingers crossed things will improve...
