Avoriaz - opening week

Hey all,
I want to ask those with experience who have been to Avoriaz; how are the snow conditions in mid-December? Worth a trip?
Million thanks for replies :)

Would be interesting to know how many lifts are likely to be open, too. I know a few places that have great snow in mid-December, but there will probably be very few lifts open (Scandinavian resorts, for example).

Always a good question. Avoriaz is officially opened on Dec 13 and having its opening weekend party then. Suppose the number of opened lifts depends on snow which is why I'm hoping to get some input from Avoriaz regulars. So far though, I think it's looking like a good snow season

So far, so good, and we've just heard that Avoriaz plans to be (partially) open for weekends from this Saturday.
