Question
What if I struggle with the altitude?
Answer
Sleeping on oxygen is the most effective way to reduce altitude related symptoms while in the mountains, Peak Oxygen is offering our guests 20% off with free delivery to your accommodations. We will also have an oxygen bar at the reception! The Black Mountain Lodge at Arapahoe Basin stands at an elevation of 11,500 feet. There will be two EMTs on site, but please remember to drink plenty of water, eat food, and know that drinks catch up to you faster at that elevation. We want you to have fun while also taking care of yourself.

What if I can't go on the chairlift?
