Question

What is up with the altitude?

Answer

Altitude is no joke! Timber Ridge is at 11,660 feet elevation (2x as high as Denver). Here are ways to best prepare. 1. Hydrate. Drink as much water as you can leading up to your travel and when you arrive. This is one of the best things to avoid altitude sickness. 2. Acclimate by staying in Denver for a night if you can. This will help your body adjust. 3. Consider medication to help with altitude acclimatization. The medicine used is called Acetazolamide (Diamox). I am not a Doctor (although I am a PA), but please ask your Healthcare provider about this if you are interested in some extra altitude assistance!
