So I am assuming that the one parking pass is good at all of the open parking lots? I booked by clicking at the k1 lot, can I park at bear with the same booking?

You intend to quarantine. I'm starting my 14 day quarantine on Monday. A friend from Upstate NY is doing the same. Maybe compliance will be better than people think. See you on the 23rd for Flatlander Opening Day!

Over three hours in and every day of the season is still available. How can that be? I thought we were going to have to implement illegal carpools and hop onto shuttle buses and bury our cars under snowbanks in the condo lots?

I work for a public school system and I get tested every monday. The system is doing pooled results for negative, so you only hear back if you are in a positive group.

This is the problem with not taking the time to understand the situational nuance. Viruses do not have national allegiances and it’s not just about catching Covid.

Blatantly violating the safety measures are more likely to lead to closing down a local store, school, lodge or resorts than becoming gravely ill on an individual basis.

While we all understand the pent-up energy that many experience with the new normal, that does not provide sound rationale to place the community that everyone espouses to value at risk.

The problem was never going to be with advanced registrations. It's going to come when the season starts and the masses start booking within the 7 day rolling window.

I was able to book past the 7 days too but then was told that if you book past 7 days, they will take away all your reservations. Went back in and cancelled all the dates past the 7 days.
