Miraculously not turned tragedy occurred on Thursday afternoon on the southern slope of the resort, in the immediate vicinity of the ski lift. On the shots you can see how a powerful tree starts to heel and, breaking the fence, falls on the track. The girl was pressed to the ground by a barrel.
Rushed to the aid of tourists and resort employees tried to jointly release it, but they clearly did not have enough strength to cope with the 20-meter pine. Only the employees of the Ministry of Emergency Measures could rescue the victim and only after sawing a massive trunk.
Snowboarding girl survived, but got fractures of hands and feet and was taken to the hospital. No one else was injured as a result of the incident.
