COVID-19 Information 

Update 02/21/2023: We have repealed our COVID-19 cancelation policy and screening procedures.

If you booked prior to 02/21/2023 the reschedule policies in place at the time of your booking will be upheld. For new bookings, our normal cancelation/rescheule policies will apply.

As always, risk management is Blue Ridge Mountain Guides’ first priority. Throughout the COVID-19 crisis, our focus has been the health and well-being of our guides, guests, and communities. Through the pandemic we utilized closure, masking, pre-trip and day of screenings, and rescheduling to manage the risk of COVID-19.

At this time we do not have auxiliary transmissible disease restrictions or reschedule policies in place. If you develop COVID-19 symptoms , test positive, or have a known exposure, you may be able to utilize our cancelation/reschedule policies.

Insurance
We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance from an insurer such as IMG, Travel Guard, or Red Point if you would like financial protection beyond our cancellation/reschedule policy. Take care to ensure that your specific trip is covered.

Blue Ridge Mountain Guides, LLC does not cover rescue or evacuation expenses. For remote rock climbing, backcountry programs such as avalanche education, alpine climbing, mountaineering, and backcountry skiing/riding, we strongly recommend you purchase rescue/evacuation insurance from an insurer such as Global Rescue or Red Point. Both companies offer combined rescue and travel insurance.
