Investigation Summary
On January 25, 2009, Employee #1, a youth ski instructor, and five young children entered a moving chair lift. When one of the children began to slip off, Employee #1 tried to hold onto the child but then chose to jump with the child in an attempt to protect him. Employee #1 was hospitalized with unspecified fractures. A worker responsible for stopping the lift in the event of emergencies was reportedly looking elsewhere during the incident.
