Question

What are the typical weather conditions in Denver during early August?

Evenings tend to be cooler, with temperatures dropping into the 60s and 70s degrees Fahrenheit. Denver does occasionally experience heatwaves during the summer months, including early August.

Question

What should I do if I get altitude sickness in Denver?

Answer

Experiencing altitude sickness in Denver can be uncomfortable, but there are steps you can take to alleviate the symptoms and help your body acclimatize: Hydration: Drink plenty of water to stay well-hydrated. Dehydration can worsen altitude sickness symptoms. Rest: Give your body time to adjust. Rest and avoid strenuous activities. Over-the-Counter Medications: You can consider over-the-counter medications like ibuprofen to alleviate headaches and acetazolamide (under a doctor's guidance) to help with acclimatization. Avoid Alcohol and Caffeine: These substances can contribute to dehydration, so it's best to limit or avoid them. Ginger or Herbal Tea: Some people find that ginger or herbal teas help with nausea associated with altitude sickness.
