High Altitude Tips

  • Stay hydrated…drink up to twice as much water to help avoid dizziness, headaches, altitude sickness before and during your trip to higher altitudes.  Limit your caffeine intake.
  • Limit alcoholic drinks since the effects will feel stronger at high altitude.
  • Wear plenty of sunscreen.  The sun is more intense at this altitude and you will burn quickly outdoors, even in the winter.
  • Dress in layers when out and about since the weather can change quickly.  Bring warmer layers for when the sun goes down.  It does get chilly.
