Certainly a different look up on the glacier in springtime.
Before opening the thread, I was wondering if you'd just been. There's been so much snow in that part of the Alps that people couldn't get out of Zermatt for a few days (except by helicopter).
If you do ski, and want to visit Zermatt without paying for its crazy high season hotel prices, you can ski across from Cervinia in Italy. That's not a pretty town by any means (it's a purpose-built postwar resort), but the food on the mountain is good, and the skiing, and it's linked with Zermatt on the other side of the Matterhorn.
