Guide de la Station de Ski Karadjica

I lived in Skopje last year and skied here a fair bit.
Short drive from Skopje to Patishka Reka. You can continue on with a 4x4 from there to where the snow begins, sometimes right in town. There's a good, clear trail up through the timber to the plateau. Plenty of open slopes above for exploring.
This corner of Macedonia seems to get a lot of snow. The drainage faces directly north and is somewhat protected from the wind, helping it hold snow better than other areas. I have noticed some instability from time to time, so be careful!
