A sad accident

Accidents are never joyous, but at least they sometimes provide more fright than anything else.

Yesterday, after I had finished my morning skiing, around 2:30 pm, Rafi Uzielbo, a Deer Valley Resort ski instructor for seven years, died after he collided with a chairlift tower, bringing a tragic end to the resort's last day of the ski season.

He was 42 old and a resident of Park City. He apparently collided with one of the lift tower of the Sterling Express chairlift while skiing on Birdseye run. A sad day indeed for all skiers...
