Post Swiss Explorer goes skiing

A Swiss EMS MD900 had an accident on 12 Jan. Having landed on a slight but snowy (presumably icy) slope and all personnel departed aircraft to assist an injured skier, the MD900 decides to get in on the action. After sliding down the slope for 50m it then finds things difficult and rolls over necessitating a lift out by K-Max!

Anyone care to comment on skid-equipped helicopters landing on snow/ice...?
