Snow Tiger Migration Continues in April
Despite the fact that it is the end of April, snow clearing efforts are still ongoing in certain areas of Van. In particular, the orange snow plows, also known as snow tigers, have been hard at work on the Van-Bahçesaray highway at an altitude of 3,000 meters on Karabet Pass. Their main goal is to clear the road of snow and ice masses to ensure safe passage for motorists.
The challenging task of snow fighting requires dedication and perseverance, especially in higher altitude regions where snowfall can be heavy and continuous. The workers labor tirelessly to ensure that roads are safe for travel, even as the calendar turns towards warmer weather.
The sight of snow plows trudging through snow-covered roads in late April may seem unusual, but in regions like Van where winter can linger longer than expected, these efforts are crucial for the safety and convenience of residents and travelers. The orange snow tigers are a symbol of resilience and determination, working tirelessly to keep the roads clear and accessible.
As we admire the dedication of the workers braving the cold to clear the roads, let us also appreciate the beauty of nature’s unpredictability. The snow may be unexpected, but the response of the snow fighters is unwavering. Let us thank them for their hard work and commitment to keeping our roads safe, no matter the season.
