It is finally getting cold enough for the ski resorts in the Boone area to finally open! With the pandemic ongoing, all of the resorts are taking extra precautions to ensure everyone is safe and can be comfortable enjoying the slopes.
Beech Mountain makes sure to clean and disinfect all high traffic and touch areas such as restrooms, ticketing, and rental areas using CDC and EPA recommended disinfectants for COVID.
Masks are mandated at all areas outside when interacting with staff, riding, in the loading And unloading areas of the ski lift, and in outdoor areas where social distancing isnβt possible. Masks are mandated at all times inside as well.
All outdoor seating and eating areas have additional separation to ensure social distancing between multiple groups
Hand sanitizers are placed throughout the resort in high traffic areas and sensor faucets are used in all restrooms.
A new paperless system Is used for rentals. You can fill out a paperless paper request and pick up the equipment without any contact with others which also speeds up the process
You can only ride chairlifts with people who you rode with to the resort or ride them alone. This will cause a slight increase in chairlift lines
