WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT HIGH ALTITUDE?
Vail, CO is located at about 8022 feet about sea level (Denver is a 5280 feet above sea level)!
ACCLIMATING: We recommend taking it slow if this your first time. Your lungs need about 2 weeks to fully adjust to high altitude - take it easy with exercise while here!
ALCOHOL: Alcohol will have a stronger affect on you at higher altitude. In general, 1 alcoholic beverage at high altitude is equivalent to ~3 alcoholic beverages at sea level. We recommend drinking 2 glasses of water, per glass of alcohol to help adjust to this. Additionally, sources do recommend increasing your water consumption 1 month prior to going to your high altitude destination, again to help with acclimating.
DEHYDRATION: Dehydration occurs faster at altitude. Additionally, Colorado is a desert, meaning that the atmosphere is dry and can lean to dehydration a bit faster as well. Moral of the story: drink a lot more water while in Colorado!
SUN EXPOSURE: High altitude terrain brings you significantly closer to the sun. This applies to both Denver and the Rocky Mountain region. Be sure to apply chapstick and sunscreen regularly, if outside for long periods of time.
