Check-In Procedures

  • Waivers – All waivers will need to be filled out online by each participant before arriving to the outpost to eliminate contact. We will not be accepting paper waivers.
  • Outpost Cleaning Policy – All restrooms, touch screens, changing rooms, handles and high contact areas will be cleaned and sanitized after each tour rotates through.
  • Cashless – In an effort to decrease contact across our staff and guests, we ask that any transactions that need to happen at our outpost, for example, photos and souvenirs, be from a credit or debit card.
  • Screening – We will be reaching out to guests 24 hours before their trip to have them acknowledge that they are not and have not experienced coronavirus symptoms in the last 14 days, including cough, headache, and fever.
