Talhat Satayr (L) hugs with Ma Dongxu, who was once rescued by Talhat, in Urumqi, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Jan. 11, 2022. Talhat Satayr, 45, is the captain of the ski patrol team, which provides rescue services for tourists in need, at Silkroad Resort in Urumqi of Xinjiang. During his early life, he spent most of his time on the pastures along the canyons on Tianshan Mountain. He began to work at Silkroad Resort, which is not far away from his home in Urumqi, 16 years ago. Being a ski patroller is not an easy job, yet Talhat knows well the responsibilities on the shoulders of him and his teammates. He has been sent to Italy and northeast China's Jilin Province to learn professional rescue knowledge and skills at ski resort. Just like Talhat, more and more people in Xinjiang now have benefited from the development of winter sports. (Xinhua/Hu Huhu)
