I think the requirements for employees is very reasonable. While I think everyone should be vaccinated I also recognize that isn’t going to happen so reasonable accommodations should be made. OTOH, I think the guest requirements are too lax. I will be wearing a mask on the Gondi if with strangers and indoors until I’m eating.

Generally I feel this is fine. I agree, I will likely wear a mask in the Gondi. I don't know what to ponder in terms of in doors if eating but generally put faith in the vaccine reducing severity of illness.

I recall how crowded the seating can be so figure with so many eating at one time, that if one is worried or needs to avoid contracting Covid, it may be best to not eat indoors.

Not less restrictive than Winter Park which has zero restrictions posted. Only when asked outright do they say unvacvinated should wear masks indoors until seated. No mention of requirements for employees.

CO is seeing very high numbers and climbing so I wonder how long this will last.

I agree, I wonder how long before all resorts are doing the VR thing. I know someone posted up what was happening here in CO but it was deleted so I will just say this. Things started to unfold here a week or so ago. Stuff that is published today may change over the next few weeks.

Loveland announced theirs, masked up inside buildings for all guests.
