Any resort open already for skiing?
Hello

Just wondering if anyone knew of any resorts that migh open already this week-end or the next for skiing?

Preferably in France, bit less of a drive.

Avoriaz was open last weekend and is open fully from 6th December. Should be great with all the fresh snow falling this week.
