Whistler Blackcomb resumes operations for the summer season on Monday, as the province starts to reopen under Phase 3 of its COVID-19 economy restart program.
Resorts and properties will be open again, with guidelines around physical distancing, enhanced cleaning and employee health screenings and safety training.
Guests will be required to wear face coverings in some areas, such as when loading and unloading chairlifts, in lineups, in gondolas, and in indoor resort facilities.
The main activities will be sightseeing and mountain biking, with the gondolas all in operation.
All staff will be required to wear a face covering.
The Whistler Mountain Bike Park will also open, with the Fitz and Garbanzo zones.
Capacity of chairlifts and gondolas will be reduced to allow for physical distancing.
Hand-sanitizing stations will be provided throughout the resort.
The resort took the unprecedented move of shutting down operations for the rest of the ski season in mid-March as the coronavirus took hold around the world.
