I've started doing this on the odd powder day we've had this season which means I'm going to be in the queue for at least an hour before loading.Bonus hint:
Double your mask whenever you're in a less-than-okay crowd or indoor space. Carry a spare in your pocket.

Pull up a gaiter over your mask when in the lift line.

I think that "everything that goes with it" is even more of a factor for guests at ski resorts and towns in Europe. Although in N. America the issues for staff not being smart during their off-hours may be as important as whatever the guests are doing, or not doing.This thread might not quite be the right place for this, but as usual the Sun has a very good article on rising cases in Colorado being linked not to skiing itself, but to everything that goes along with it: https://coloradosun.com/2021/01/15/...igh-country-not-tracking-back-to-ski-resorts/
Fully agree. Take parking for example.I think that "everything that goes with it" is even more of a factor for guests at ski resorts and towns in Europe. Although in N.

Once the Alta parking is full, you can't drive up to ski Alta. For Snowbird, you need to make a parking reservation well in advance for weekends. Haven't sold out midweek that I've noticed but haven't looked in a couple weeks. New spots open up weekly I think.Once the lots are full, you can't get on the hill.
Yes, the bus is an option, but that's my point- trying to distance people on the hill more via parking restrictions just encourages less social distancing as people scramble to find alternative ways to get up there when they can't get a pass reservation at Brighton, or at PCMR- whether it is carpooling or taking public transportation even at 50% capacity. That's a long bus ride up the canyon from the swamp lot.Once the Alta parking is full, you can't drive up to ski Alta.

Can always ride up using UTA buses, which are at 50% capacity.
