Morgins, Switzerland, 1921: A Thrilling Bobsleigh Run at Portes du Soleil Ski Resort This photograph captures the exhilarating atmosphere of a Bobsleigh run at Morgins, Switzerland, during the 1920s. The image, set against the picturesque backdrop of the Alps, showcases a team skillfully negotiating a sharp turn in their sled, as onlookers eagerly watch from the sidelines. The Portes du Soleil ski resort, nestled in the Swiss Alps, was a popular destination for winter sports enthusiasts during the 1920s. The Bobsleigh run, with its steep inclines and sharp turns, presented a thrilling challenge for both the athletes and their equipment. In this photograph, the team, dressed in their heavy winter gear, can be seen intently focused on the task at hand. The spectators, bundled up against the cold, are equally engrossed in the action. Their expressions convey a mix of excitement, anticipation, and awe as they watch the Bobsleigh team make the sharp turn. The turn itself is a sight to behold; the sled, seemingly defying gravity, hugs the curve with precision, its runners barely touching the icy surface. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of winter sports and the thrill of competition. It transports us back in time to an era when the simple joy of sliding down an icy chute on a wooden sled was transformed into a high-speed, adrenaline-pumping experience. The turn at Morgins, Switzerland, in 1921, remains a symbol of the spirit of adventure and the indomitable human will to conquer the elements.
