Hey, I looked around and can’t seem to find anything about how Ikon resorts will adjust their operations for COVID this season...am I missing it?
I actually emailed Ikon yesterday and asked. Got a response back quicker than what I thought. She basically said it's up to each resort to set their guidelines. My thought, okay well when will they.
This is not known at this time.The other thing is whether Ikoners will be required to have reservations, but not mountain pass holders, like A-Basin. So many questions and no answers from Ikon.
As for the Copper and Eldora parking reservations, it sounds like Ikon pass holders will be treated the same as pass holders to the areas themselves. That's based on what the areas published and the Copper state of the resort address last weekend.So Copper and Eldora are doing parking reservations. My issue with that is it encourages car pooling or riding the public bus, which doesn’t seem like the right thing to be doing now. I could see a bunch of friends in Frisco or Boulder or wherever all squeezing into a car to park. Multiply that and suddenly you have more people on the mountain than expected and people squeezed in a car who might be spreading the virus to one another and later to others.
And Eldora, most skiers ski for a part of the day. What happens when half the cars leave at noon...are they not going to allow for the vacancies to be filled? Maybe there will be a stand by list LOL?

The YMCA pool is open by reservation for a lane. It is horrible and not working. We have gotten 3 swims in the last 2 months. Pool usage is way down in both hours offered and number of swimmers. We feel cheated on our membership and extremely frustrated - along with being weak and flabby. Everybody else has the same complaints (or more). The reservation policy is not working.
This is a stilted response based on corporate timidity and government edicts. No real technical support of the requirements or policy. It feels like we are being discouraged from the activities. Activities that are important for our health and well-being.
I hope Icon (Alterra) gives us as much access to the mountains as they possibly can.
