Thanks for the info PG, Have you any idea how far down the mountain you usually can ski to in the first week?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

So unpredictable these days, they cancelled the "Première Neige" Criterium for only the second time in 48 years last season. From what I remember conditions were great through November, then a thaw set in. But who knows, all you can say if you can ski anywhere that early Espace Killy's a good bet - still, early December 2003 the best conditions by far were in the Pyrenees and the southern French Alps!
