Magic. snow???
It's March and you haven't been 'skiing. Why not?
Because the reports keep saying that there's no
snow. But your friends have been skiing and talking'
about marvellous conditions. Have they` been to the
arctic? No, but they've been to some of the right
places. {
Do you ever wonder why some hills are covered
in snow and everywhere else is mud? Is it magic?
No. Quite a few ski areas have snow -making
machines. °
These huge' .machines are about. the size of . a
kitchen. They make snow by mixingwater and air
together. This mixtureis noisily pumped up hills
and sprayed over the slopes in a ,rine mist . As soon
• as the mist hits the air, it; freezes:' The resulting fine
granules of snow are perfect to ski on.
These machines can cover acres of hills in one
night, providing the conditions are right. To make
snow the temperature must be below ;freezing and
theair should be crisp and dry. ,Even "fake" snow
• is dependent on the weather. As long as the nights
are cold and dry, snow can be made.
Making snow is a dangerous profession to be in.
The operators of the sprayers must be well pro-
tected; if the wind is blowing the wrong way they
will be covered in ice. They also have to know the
area well, because they're workingat night and
more often than not, "travelling by snowmobile. In
the morning the brave efforts of these people are
rewarded by a fresh blanket of "snow".
Look for hills in your area that have pipes
running from a very large machine. These are the
hills that havefresh, homemade snow. Don't stay
at ho , e, ski!
