Zermatt is definitely a resort to arrive at as part of an off-piste
tour. The off-piste itineraries are excellent.
They looked great. Unfortunately, I was on a long weekend break with a
specific agenda, and the weather was very patchy: lots of low cloud, and I
really didn't want to risk doing a run on my own, that I didn't know, in flat
light, that wasn't patrolled.
Looking at old piste maps (I've been there twice before, but as a near
complete novice), most, if not all of these were once black runs.
I'm not sure what the rationale for downgrading them was, but I suspect cash.
