where i live (especially in my local region) tourism is huge. especially in winter. and IMHO skiing is one of the most dangerous winter activities you can do. i honestly always bring this up because i think skiing is wrongfully seen as a "casual activity".
having worked in a hospital for some time, you wouldn't believe how many accidents we receive in winter just because of skiing accidents. it's by far the worst time to be working in a hospital and i'm not exaggerating. it's truly insane how easy it is to get injured in a major way while skiing.
you can be the best freaking skiier in your whole ski club, and still get taken out by a single stupid idiot who doesn't know his limits or just doesn't care for the safety of others.
