在距離北京2022年冬奧會(huì)開(kāi)幕80天之際，延慶賽區(qū)國(guó)家高山滑雪中心正式啟動(dòng)冬奧會(huì)賽時(shí)造雪工作。

預(yù)計(jì)造雪任務(wù)1月中旬完成。

A series of water-conserving and recycling designs have been put into place to optimize water usage for snowmaking, human consumption and other purposes, according to the Beijing 2022 organizing committee.

北京冬奧組委介紹說(shuō)，已建成多種節(jié)水和循環(huán)利用設(shè)施，以節(jié)約利用造雪、生活用水和其他用途的用水。

Around 90% of the snow used at the Alpine skiing venue for the Pyeongchang 2018 Winter Olympics was reportedly artificial, while artificial snow was also a feature of Vancouver 2010 and Sochi 2014.

據(jù)報(bào)道，2018年平昌冬奧會(huì)高山滑雪場(chǎng)內(nèi)大約90%的雪都是人造的，而人造雪也是2010年溫哥華冬奧會(huì)和2014年索契冬奧會(huì)的特色之一。

The center is the first Olympic-standard Alpine ski venue in China with a maximum vertical drop of about 900 meters. It has seven slopes.

延慶賽區(qū)國(guó)家高山滑雪中心是中國(guó)首個(gè)奧運(yùn)會(huì)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)高山滑雪場(chǎng)地，建有7條雪道，最大垂直落差約900米。
