In China, except for Altay and Northeast China, there is not much natural snowfall in winter. So where does the snow in the ski resort come from? The answer is: all are fake! In other words, it's all artificial snow! Most ski resorts in China rely on artificial snowmaking for snow.

The world does not snow, humans will make it. Real snow, as the name suggests, is natural snow, and "fake" snow is what we often call artificial snow. First of all, let's first and popularize the basic difference between natural snow and artificial snow.

The biggest feature of natural snow is that it is relatively small and light, while artificial snow is ice granular and heavier, which will also give skiers a different experience.

Seeing this, you may understand: This kind of "soft" snow is what we often call powder snow. For areas with heavier snowfall, ski enthusiasts can have more opportunities to experience powder snow and wild snow. But even so, whether it is the northeastern region with abundant snowfall or the Altay region of Xinjiang, which is known as the "Snow Capital of China", ski resorts still need artificial snow.

The working principle of the Blueocean snow making machine, to put it simply, the water is supplied to the nose by a pipe, and then the water is delivered to the air by a drying press, and then the water is sprayed into the air through the barrel, and after cooling, it becomes small ice particles. Then fall to the ground. After landing, the basic tasks of the snow-making vehicle are completed. The snow is made, and the next step is the work of the snow roller. The first function of the snow blower is to "shovel" all the snow packs made. The snow plow at the back is responsible for crushing the flat snow block. After crushing, it is leveled by the snow maker at the back of the car. After pulling it, the snow plow is like a comb combed, which is what we call noodle snow. Why is it pressed into such a shape? The first is to knock off the ice, and the second is that people are comfortable to slide.
After talking about the snow in winter, let's talk about the "snow" in summer, that is, the snow in the indoor ski resort. The same is snow making, and indoors and outdoors are very different. Compared with outdoor ski resorts that depend on the sky for food, indoor ski resorts can more flexibly control the snowmaking time and ambient temperature. The indoor ski resort is like a natural "cold storage", and some snow friends also call it a "big freezer". First of all, the snow-making vehicle is different from the outdoor one. Secondly, the snow in the indoor ski resort needs a "big change". Every six months or so, the snow in the ski resort needs to be emptied and re-made, otherwise it will become Ice-like. In contrast, snowmaking in indoor ski resorts also requires higher costs.

Not sure why this is here but fwiw, snow making machines like this are not unique to China. They are also used regularly in climates with lots of natural snow because it can still be useful to pad out your trails and extend the season into the fall and spring.
