On Saturday afternoon there was a collision between two skiers in the Lech ski area, on the blue slope no. 238 (“Hasensprung”) near the “Der Wolf” ski hut.
A 41-year-old German woman was about to turn right on her descent when she suddenly collided with a male skier who was driving straight towards her and fell. The previously unknown man then spoke to the casualty briefly, but then left the scene of the accident without disclosing his identity data.
