9-Year-Old Skier Hurt In Accident At Nashoba Valley

BOSTON (CBS) - A 9-year-old boy was seriously hurt while skiing at Nashoba Valley in Westford Sunday.

He had apparently gone off the trail.  It's not clear if he hit a tree.

The boy was rushed to Children's Hospital in Boston by a medical helicopter.
