Unusual ski accident occurs on chair lift

HASTINGS, Minn. — It wasn’t the sort of skiing accident Dani Truax ever expected to have. A junior at Hastings High School, she has been skiing on the Welch Village Developmental ski team since she was in third grade. On Feb. 11, she was with her team at the Coffee Mill Ski Area in Wabasha for a competition. Her accident didn’t happen on the slopes, though. It happened above them.
