Austria - Obergurgl ( eighth day )

Obergurgl (Obergurgl) be in the same valley of Ötztal, that Solden. From the Sölden ski lifts can be seen even a little Obergurgl, t. to. resorts are located on opposite slopes of the valley. The height of the lowest point 1930m - probably the highest village, where we were.
Weather that day was wonderful, could not but rejoice. Ski area as it is divided into two parts - Obergurg and Hochgurgl (Hochgurgl), which connects the horizontal lift over the coming two small valleys. The plan was simple: just move this to another part of the lift and ride there and back on this side dokatatsya. So did.
On the other side was the highest point - 3082m. At the top there was an observation deck with a magnificent view of the Alps, but the Italian. Near the site of a standing stuffed mountain goat. Goat proudly looking toward Austria, Italy, substituting your ass.
Fully enjoy the views, we went down. We found a great place Lehoy with virgin. The snow was excellent, loose and easy - fun! . The girls went in the usual way, and we went to do Lehoy offpistom for some snowboarders. However, they have gone too far, and we decided not to follow them, the more we had to meet with the girls. We got into some rocks and pinch out the full program. It was not high, but the feeling was enough. After the shutter had to call the girls to find each other.
Having tested everything you can on this side, and a snack, we decided to move back to the other side. However, riding up to the elevator, we found that it costs, and the entrance to it is closed. For some people arrived at the station on the snowcat, with ropes and carabiners. It turned out that the lift broke down and was scheduled any rescue operation. What to do? . Besides us such as we had quite a few. The descent was normal, without much skiroutovosti. All sat in and drove back skibas.
When we got on the elevator, then heard the chirping of the helicopter. Our eyes opened next picture. Rescue helicopter hovered over the failed lift, and under it a long rope hanging a man who tried to get into one of the gondolas. Having got there, he pinned to his person, and with it the helicopter took them to the landing site, near the lift station. The same helicopter continued to make further. We immediately regretted that the lift did not go earlier, because then we could take part in the rescue and be rescued and carried away by helicopter. Romance, a pancake. Instead, we went skating.
At one point, t. Luda went wrong, and Leh with Julia has gone down to the necessary lift to get there and went to t. Luda could not. I saw that we are about to lose, they showed signs that they sat on the platform, and he went to t. Lyuda. We descended down the other elevator and go up, too. Our group was reunited at the top. Climbing to the top once more, we started to descend to the parking lot. On the way stopped to see the details of the rescue operation, which was still going on. I do not know how long they were removed from the lift of all, but it was not fast. One of the rescuers, we learned that nothing was broken, and there were no casualties. Simply lift would not work anymore in this day.
We got to the parking lot slowly and without tension. Then the whole evening discussing what he saw, mostly rescue operation in which we were not able to be saved.
