Qilu Evening Paper
9:30 on the evening of 3, the reporter came to the golden Xiangshan ski resort. Four snow makers are spraying snow in a square area about 400 square meters below the snow road. The water ejected from the machine quickly condenses into snow grains at 50 meters in the air and scatters on the ground to cover the turf. The reporter grabbed a handful of snow and felt that his hands were cold at once. The tiny snow grains were as white as the salt grains.
at the snow making site, the thermometer in the hands of the reporter showed 7 degrees below zero, which conformed to the conditions of snow making. The golden ski resort of Xiangshan started the snow making machine from 6 p.m. on the 3 day. According to the staff of ski resort, the four machines can work until around 9 a.m. on the 4 day, if the temperature conditions permit. A few nights later, if conditions permit, it is necessary to make snow until the whole snow field is covered.
it is understood that the four snowmaker works at the same time, and eight workers take turns on duty, but if they want to move a snow maker, there will be eight workers. Zhou Chengbin, a staff member in the snow maker, told reporters that the thickness of the skiing was 30 centimeters, almost to reach the position of the calf. After all the snow work was completed, the thickest place could reach 80 centimeters. The reporter measured the spot, and the thickness of the snow on the snow road is about 10 centimeters. The official said that if there were no accidents, the ski resorts would be open on December 8th (Saturday).
