The Pischa Horn, a alomst 3000m high peak not far from the Pischa ski area, almost always provides great views and great downhill powder through the epic Mattjisch Valley.

The tour is doable also for “beginners” (some switchbacks, however). If you start early, yaou can be back at noon at the base station of Pischa and head for a beer in Davos or go back skiing on Pischa. A map can be found here.
Last Sunday (February 10, 2013) we (Petra & Peter, Beat, UP and myself) in absolutely gorgeous weather. Great to take some pictures. Click on any picture to start slide show:
