Welcome to Snow Mountain Ranch! We are glad you are joining us!

Snow Mountain Ranch is open and we look forward to sharing our wide-open spaces, mountain views and fresh air with you! For your health and safety, we are making decisions about our operations based on our local and state health agency orders and guidelines. As a result, the guest experience at YMCA of the Rockies will be a little different this year.

As the COVID-19 situation develops and new recommendations and health orders are implemented, our processes and procedures are also changing in response. We are working hard to make sure your stay here is restful, relaxing and safe. Please be patient with us as we adjust to the new way of doing things.

GUEST SAFETY GUIDELINES AND PRACTICES

Consistent with Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment Public Health Order 20-28 Safer at Home, YMCA of the Rockies is committed to protecting the health of our staff and our guests.

Current orders require the use of face coverings inside any business. This includes all buildings at Snow Mountain Ranch with the exception of your lodging unit. Please review our guidelines for when you should wear a mask on Snow Mountain Ranch property. We also request guests follow appropriate social distancing practices, maintaining a six-foot distance from other guests and staff. We encourage guests to bring their own hand sanitizer and use it after contact with high-touch areas.

YMCA of the Rockies staff members are following social distancing requirements, wearing face coverings and gloves as mandated, telecommuting whenever possible, practicing appropriate personal hygiene, and passing a daily temperature and symptom assessment.

Guest Safety Practices and Protocols

CLEANING PROTOCOLS

YMCA of the Rockies – Snow Mountain Ranch is committed to the health and safety of our guests and staff and has enhanced cleaning and sanitation measures. These cleaning protocols are recommended by the CDC and state and local public health officials.

All staff members are required to wear masks when working within 6-feet of others, and guests are required to wear masks when entering buildings or when in outdoor situations where a 6-foot distance is not possible. All staff members must pass a health screening before reporting to their shifts each day.

All public areas of YMCA of the Rockies – Snow Mountain Ranch buildings are deeply sanitized on a regular basis using hospital-grade EPA approved agents and virus eliminating chemicals. High-touch areas are sanitized multiple times per day with CDC-recommended cleaning materials.

ARRIVAL/ CHECK-IN/ CHECK-OUT

You will receive a pre-arrival email allowing you to complete part of the registration process online. Please make every effort to submit this information prior to arriving at Snow Mountain Ranch, allowing us to minimize the time needed to complete your paperwork in person. Upon arrival, one member of your party may enter the Administration building to complete check-in process.

Every adult in your party will be required to sign a Guest Assumption of Risk Waiver. You may download it now and print and sign it to reduce the time spent checking in.

If possible, bring your own pen and be sure to wear your face mask. One-way traffic into and out of the building has been established. Please follow the signs.

For your safety, we are taking extra precautions to clean and disinfect your rooms before arrival. In order to minimize the possibility of spreading COVID-19 between our staff and guests, once you check into your lodging, our Housekeeping staff will not re-enter your room until you checkout. We will provide stations in each of the lodges where guests can exchange towels and pick up supplies. Guests can also go directly to our Linen Exchange center located in the Guest Coin Laundry.

When you check out, please leave your keys inside your lodge room, cabin or yurt. You will receive an email with a copy of  your final folio. Do not go to the front desk unless you have an issue that cannot be resolved over the phone.

Be sure to check your pre-arrival emails and this webpage for the most current, specific information as your date of arrival gets closer. This page will be updated regularly as new information, processes and procedures are available.

PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES

We suggest bringing board games, card games, and other activities from home to keep in your cabin during your stay.

Masks are required at all activities, and must be worn outside when 6 ft. distance is not possible.
