The resort will also prioritize access for season pass holders, while tightly regulating the number of daily lift tickets that can only be purchased in advance, in order to mitigate large crowds.
Those interested in visiting any of the Southland's local mountain resorts are advised to check each resort's COVID-19 requirements before heading there.
