Portes Du Soleil opens early

Due to the amount of snow that has fallen over the last week and consisitent low temperatures, a number of resorts in the portes Du soleil are opening their lifts this weekend. Avoriaz is opening fully next weekend (24th Nov) almost a month earlier than planned. But I couldn't wait even till tomorrow as conditions were looking that good so hiked the Arare (peak dirctly above Avoriaz town) and rode freshies all the way to the bottom of Prodains. First turns of the season and a great reminder about how happy snowboarding can make you feel. Check photos, will be heading to Les Gets tomorrow so watch this space for more pics of how it's looking.
