Opening days?

How do you find out proposed opening days for places close to Geneva?

chamonix.net doesn't mention it
verbier.ch says lifts run From October the 27th till November the 28th but
don't say if any skiing is involved!
flaine.com says nowt
http://www.avoriaz.com doesn;t seem to say much either

The only place that seems to have a firm opening date is L'Espace Killy
which opens 29th November.

cheers,

Greg

which opens 29th November.

Saas Fee and Glacier 3000 is open now.

Grands Montet 22/11 which I think is weekend opening.

Flaine is 13/12 but there's usually some weekends before.

The rest of the Grande Massif is 20/12.

Les Contamines will almost certainly open early Dec/late Nov but it's
not been announced yet.

Incidentally, I think you're looking in the wrong place for
information, flaine.com isn't much good, you need skiflaine.com. Your
other links probably aren't much better, I'm certain Chamonix have
posted opening on the web. Maybe you're only looking at the English
versions?
