Seeing as I am back from my summer holidays I think it is time to start to planning for my first ski trip. We usually go to France in mid December for a few days and am looking to do something a bit different if possible this year. I have been looking at opening dates for next winter but am getting very little information so far.
Anyone know where I should be looking?
Thanks.
Winter 2014/15 opening dates?

Very few (if any) resorts will have announced firm opening dates as yet. We usually start collating them in late summer when they start getting announced.
If you check our resort pages (e.g. http://www.j2ski.com/ski_resorts/France/Chamonix.html ), under "X Season Dates", we indicate the usual approximate dates for the major resorts.
As soon as we start getting a few dates in, I'll post an update here.
Obviously keep in mind that planned opening dates tend to move around a bit depending on the snows. Quite a few ski areas can open a week or two earlier than planned - at least for weekends - if they get the snow and, likewise, can postpone opening if the snows are late (per some areas in Oz and NZ at the moment).
...and, yes, it's about 5 months too early to be making predictions about the coming season's snow... 8)
Happy to stick my neck out with a prediction for 14/15 European Ski Season........
It will snow this winter!
:mrgreen:
Well that's jinxed it then!
Better get your snow dance on early this year... 8)
Not until tomorrow, Andy.
However, I think you are spot on, it will be another GREAT winter, with snow right through from October until May, everywhere, and with sunny days every day, and snowfall only through the nights.
That IS what you meant, is it not?
Nope.....

Cheers Admin, I thought as much but just getting some early planning ideas. I will most likely end up in the 3 valleys again or Tignes anyway.
