We whizzed back up on the chairlift looking forward to the next challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I paused at an intersection where 2 runs cross each other to allow some skiers to pass in front of me. Unfortunately one of them made a mistake which resulted in her skiing straight into me at some speed. It was quite a crash, and we eventually came to rest about 50 metres further down the hill. A quick phone call summoned the SOS, and I got a free ride back to the cable car on a skidoo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/82C464E2-5468-44C6-852D-4BCDCF546F5B.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"760\" src=\"https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/82C464E2-5468-44C6-852D-4BCDCF546F5B-1024x760.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11580\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/82C464E2-5468-44C6-852D-4BCDCF546F5B-1024x760.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/82C464E2-5468-44C6-852D-4BCDCF546F5B-300x223.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/82C464E2-5468-44C6-852D-4BCDCF546F5B-768x570.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/82C464E2-5468-44C6-852D-4BCDCF546F5B-404x300.jpeg 404w, https:\/\/mikeeasley.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/82C464E2-5468-44C6-852D-4BCDCF546F5B.jpeg 1457w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Swiss medical services are very cautious, and I was sat in a wheelchair for the trip back down to Wengen. On arrival our friend Vroni picked me up in her taxi and deposited me at the doctors. I was very pleased to hear that I only have bruised and probably cracked ribs, which will heal on their own.
