I should add that both routes from Chamanna da Boval and Tschierva are rather common ski routes, too. Main season für that is February through May. Don´t forget your avalanche gear!

Hi Michael,
thanks for your suggestion. The route from Chamanna Tschierva is surely a good ski route, but the route from Chamanna da Boval has a central rocky section that cannot be climbed without taking off the ski...so i'm not sure it's a good ski route. What do you think about?
Cheers, Walter
Hello Walter,
I know that rock section above Chamanna Boval very well (in summer) and I was told that the route is done as a ski route, too. It normally is one of the main ski routes to Piz Morteratsch but you can do Piz Tschierva as well. You may have to carry your skies (as it is done on the Fortezza route to Piz Palü or Piz Bernina), but I think with a sufficient snow cover it will only be the steepest upper part (crampons and ice axa are a must).
