It seams all the Vali and Aspen resorts are out now. Is Telluride friendly to the unvaccinated? Steamboat appears it is, but went there last year.

You can still ski, you just cant eat inside any "on mountain" restaurants.

True, but when you are dropping a few thousand to take the family, not having to use a different water fountain would be nice.

Kind of my question, what mountains beyond skiing are friendly? Kids will want to eat indoors, swim, etc.

Vail and Aspen are ultra liberal
companies.

I’m sure there are other options, but Jackson Hole is owned by a conservative family and doesn’t do that.

Does Boyne have a vaccine policy?

Restaurants in the towns do not fall under the management of the resorts so they are not subject to the vaccine requirement.

It will be up to the individual establishment as to whether they will require it or not. Colorado is hit or miss so Breck, Telluride, Aspen, Vail, CB should all have plenty of options that will not require the "vaccine".

I'm not sure about Keystone as I believe Vail Resorts owns much of the property in the village.

Go to Big Sky, was there last year during the heart of covid and outside of wearing masks in a few places it was like covid didn't exist. Sure things are even more lax now. Right from their website..

quote:

Guests visiting Big Sky Resort will not be required to show proof of vaccination. This includes guests using lift access, entering indoor facilities, or staying in Big Sky Resort Central Reservations accommodations.

While we do not require facial coverings indoors, except for employees who are unvaccinated, we strongly encourage everyone to mask up unless seated and eating or drinking. Facial coverings will not be required outdoors or on the Lone Peak Tram.

I wouldn’t go Colorado honesty, as said go to Montana, Wyoming, or Idaho to be safest. NM and Colorado are still very into vaccine and covid mandates.

Most people are making a fake card to be used in restaurants and such. Just don't use it for anything "official".

I know a group who just went on a girls trip to nyc, and they all had the fake cards. Used in restaurants, shows, etc. No problems at all.

Imagine working this hard to avoid a free vaccine.

I avoid Colorado because of the political situation.


I thought about it for a little bit. I would look at Grand Targhee, Big Sky, and Jackson Hole.

It’s your choice. Still a free country.

I haven't read the restrictions for Vail, but I know a guy riding Vail today that isn't vaccinated. And he'll be in Breck a few days later this week...are you sure there is a problem?

This is not the place for that argument, but I am still covid antibody positive. That is actually better than the vaccine.

I also buried a family member this past year. He died 1 week after 2nd shot. Blood clots through out the body.

I'm pretty certain proof of vaccination isn't required to ski either Vail or Breck.

Google Vax card template, print it out, fill it in, take pictures and save on phone.

Issue solved.

I have been in Snowmass for one day, nobody has asked to see my card yet but I'm not sure if I have even been in a place where they would ask for it.
