Burnie Glacier Chalet

We want to welcome you to Burnie, and we want you and us to stay healthy. So, we have made changes to the way we operate. First of all,  we still ski well, eat well, and sleep well. To allow more distance between people, there will be only eight guests at Burnie, down from eleven. That means more space and better service, because we will still be two guides. It also means somewhat higher prices because our costs remain almost unchanged. We will ask you to be even more conscientious in washing your hands, sneezing and coughing into your elbow, and avoiding contamination through contact. When you make your field lunch, we will ask you to wear a mask and to use clean cutlery, for each guest. We will clean surfaces more frequently and carefully than we did so far. If there will be quick and easy tests for Covid-19, we will administer those at the helicopter hangar, and infected people, or people with Covid-19 typical symptoms will not be allowed on the trip. The latter is something we don’t know yet. We are also looking into air filters that might remove virus form the air at the lodge. As for all of us, this is a work in progress, and we try hard to strike the  right balance between our love of company and skiing in the mountains together and everybody’s health. See you in the winter!
