I agree about St Anton being far for a day of skiing, I will have 5 or 6 days of skiing in St Moritz and I'm skiing with a strong crew so I don't really want to burn out my legs before the rest of them get there. I'm just looking to relax a bit, enjoy some scenery, drink some local beer. Thanks for the replies. Klosters looks cool

From Klosters, it’s pretty easy to get over to St Moritz via the train through the Vereina tunnel... The snow should be pretty good. Only issue is that it is holidays, so finding a place last minute could be difficult.

I maaaay be in Klosters Friday evening, so if plans allow, could grab a beer. Am on crutches, so unfortunately can’t show you around the mountain.

Chur sounds about as good as anywhere if you don't want to ski until you get to St. Mo. It works logistically (which is probably part of the reason you selected it), gets you about 1/2 way on to St. Mo and is a short train trip from the airport. My only experience there is a train change a time or 2, but it's on your way, and I at least recall it's scenic (like everything in ChH.
Be advised the the Swiss don't exactly rage all night long, so things will be a bit more quiet than you may be used to on a Friday night, but you are probably going to be dragging Friday after an overnight flight anyway. If BWP makes it to Klosters, hop the train for a 1 hour ride over there to meet him for a beer. Otherwise, I would just wander Chur a bit, find a bar with decent food and call it a night.
As for Saturday, I know you said you want to save your legs, but if you leave Chur at 8ish, you are in St. Mo at 10. Dump the bags at the hotel and go cruise groomers solo for a few hours? The scenery is stunning, lift tickets way cheaper than in the US, so you might enjoy the cruising before the hard core part of the trip kicks off.

Note the difference between skiing at Chur and skiing at Churwalden.

Forecast rain (which has been our predominant weather this season) and it is puking - all the grass and even the blacktop has turned white - heaviest snowfall (snow per hour) so far this winter!...in Chamonix

I'm headed to CH for a week in March and we've arranged a private guide for a couple days. What are the guide's expectations regarding tipping? Thanks

Yesterday was a sleeper day. I thought the storm had fizzled out but found 40cm to play in nonetheless. I hope the rest of the month keeps little storms coming out way

Longshot, but if any mags are going to be at Madesimo tomorrow, I'll be there with some friends who are weaker skiers and I'd love to link up. I'd love to make it over to Monte Caruga. Also, I've never been there before, so if anyone has some beta, I'd really appreciate it.

Buster,
Do you know if there is anyplace to leave my stuff while skiing at the Kloster Platz train station?

There will be day lockers in the station. Probably big enough for all your stuff but might be tricky if you have a second pair of skis. If not there would be a desk or shop that does bag/gear check - but you probably will have to ask around to find it.
