  • Rental orders will be picked up at our ticket windows and outdoor queuing to allow for physical distancing.
  • All equipment gets disinfected after every use.
  • Special attention has been put into designing a flow to keep guests and staff safe.

  • You may order food and beverage online from our ChowNow app or purchase in person. You will receive an email to let you know when your order is ready.

  • All alcoholic beverages must be purchased in conjunction with a food purchase per California state regulations.
  • Indoor seating is available at a 25% capacity, must purchase food and beverage (30min. limit). The ski industry is encouraging guests to think of their cars as a lodge this year due to indoor restrictions.
