Question

Any Tips for High Altitude.

Answer

Drink Water: When you’re out and about in the Pikes Peak region, it’s critical that you drink a lot of water. Don’t wait to get thirsty to decide you need a drink. And if you’re super active and working up a sweat, it doesn’t hurt to also slip in a sport drink with electrolytes into the rotation. Start the water intake early. It’ll help you adjust properly and get you acclimated much faster if you’re already hydrated when you get here. Monitor the Booze-Intake: At higher altitudes, it’s easy to get super tipsy, super-fast — completely by accident. Now, we have a ton of great breweries, and distilleries so managing this can be particularly tricky. However, you don’t have to outright abstain. Take it slow when you do imbibe, matching your alcoholic beverages with lots of water and avoid drinking on an empty stomach. If you begin to feel a bit woozy, back off and drink some water. The beer, wine and whiskey isn’t going anywhere, there’s no need to try to drink it all in one sitting.

Question

What Will the Weather Be Like in July?

Answer

The Pikes Peak Region boasts 300 days of sunshine per year - the other days we have company! Summertime in the Colorado Rockies is beautiful! The average temperature in July is a sunny 80-85 degrees, with temperatures cooling to 60-65 degrees in the evening. The wedding ceremony will be outdoors, with weather contingency plan to move indoors. But whether cool or cloudy, the sunshine at elevation is strong, so do yourself a favor and wear sunscreen and shades. The temperature will drop once the sun drops behind the mountains, so you might want to have a light wrap or jacket for the evening chill.
