That's per day of skiing, and a lot of ski trips are more than one day.
This doesn't take individual behavior into account though. A lot of people are skiing more cautiously than the insane risk takers who kill themselves in avalanches or falls in deep woods or backcountry. Also, the driving to the ski resort is likely to be more dangerous than regular driving because you're more likely to encounter icing, snow on the road, and low visibility conditions.
All in my guess would be that the driving is more dangerous for most skiers.
