Question

What is the Altitude? Will I get altitude sickness?

Answer

The altitude in the center of the town of Mammoth Lakes is around 7800’. The ceremony and reception are both around 8600'. Altitude sickness can occur at any height above 8000’. Common symptoms are headaches and shortness of breath. Lindsay is prone to altitude sickness and has found that drinking lots of water before arrival and during your first day in town works well. Advil does wonders and be sure you are eating enough! If you’d like to learn more please visit this link https://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/altitude-sickness.

Question

What should I know about Mammoth?

Answer

Mammoth is a small ski resort town in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. October is a beautiful fall month with a range of fun outdoor activities to partake in like hiking, kayaking, and camping. Unfortunately, it’s typically too early to ski. Nearby, you have Mono Lake, Bodie Ghost Town, Lake Tahoe, and the incredible Yosemite National Park. If you have the time, we highly recommend a trip to Yosemite as that is where we got engaged!
