HIGH ALTITUDE TIPS
Sponsored by:
See our ad on Page 11 of the Local Business section!
Altitude can have significant effects on individuals in Winter Park, Colorado, which is situated at a high elevation. Winter Park has a base elevation of around 9,000 feet (2,743 meters) and goes up to over 12,000 feet (3,657 meters) at its highest points. These high altitudes can lead to a condition known as altitude sickness or acute mountain sickness (AMS). Here are some of the effects of altitude and ways to alleviate symptoms:
Altitude Sickness Symptoms: Altitude sickness can affect people differently, but common symptoms include headaches, nausea, fatigue, dizziness, shortness of breath, and trouble sleeping.
Stay Hydrated: Dehydration can exacerbate altitude sickness symptoms. Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, but avoid alcohol and caffeine, as they can contribute to dehydration.
Acclimatization: Gradual exposure to higher altitudes is one of the best ways to alleviate altitude sickness. Spend a day or two at a lower elevation before ascending to Winter Park if possible. This allows your body to acclimate to the reduced oxygen levels.
Supplemental Oxygen: In most cases, supplemental oxygen can be helpful in quickly alleviating symptoms. You can rent O2 concentrators from www.winterparkoxygen.com right now!
Medications: If you’re concerned about altitude sickness, consult a healthcare professional before your trip. They may prescribe medications like acetazolamide (Diamox) that can help prevent or alleviate symptoms.
Limit Physical Exertion: During the first couple of days at high altitude, it’s advisable to limit strenuous physical activities to give your body time to adjust.
Proper Nutrition: Eating foods rich in carbohydrates can provide your body with extra energy and help mitigate some of the symptoms of altitude sickness.
Descend If Necessary: If symptoms of altitude sickness worsen or do not improve with rest and hydration, it’s crucial to descend to a lower altitude. Severe altitude sickness can be life-threatening, and descending is the most effective treatment.
Listen to Your Body: Pay attention to how you’re feeling, and don’t push yourself too hard. If you experience severe symptoms like confusion, loss of coordination, or chest pain, seek medical attention immediately.
Remember that altitude sickness can affect anyone, regardless of age or fitness level. It’s essential to take it seriously and be prepared. If you plan to visit Winter Park, Colorado, or any other high-altitude destination, consult with a healthcare professional and educate yourself about the risks and precautions associated with high altitudes.
WINTER PARK CO IS DIFFERENT!
Sponsored by:
What makes Winter Park different from other Colorado resorts?
Most importantly, it’s where outdoor enthusiasts will find a quality experiences, no matter ability level or activity preference.
Many skiers and snowboarders already know our area for its winter playground, since we’re home to Winter Park Resort and the National Sports Center for the Disabled, the world’s largest disabled program. Our location, tucked against the Continental Divide, ensures dependable snow all winter long.
In the wintertime, families love slipping, sliding and gliding on the regional tubing hills and skating rinks. Once-in-a-lifetime activities are also in abundance with backcountry snowcat ski trips, dog sled rides, hot-air balloon tours and horse-drawn carriage rides. Enjoy the Winter Park snow!
Even though “winter” is in our name, we also offer plenty of summer fun! Many locals testify that they “came for the winter but stayed for the summer.” Bikers love this mountain paradise with over 600 miles of trails to explore as well as hiking, river rafting, fishing, golfing, boating, horseback riding — and an all-time favorite with kids of all ages: the longest alpine slide in Colorado — ensures that everyone is able to pursue their passion or perhaps find a new one.
The warmer weather ushers in more than 200 exciting events, including marquee music festivals, running, fitness and biking events, beer and wine festivals and more — making for an event-packed summer calendar.
Winter Park is authentic, friendly, comfortable and packed with activities and unique events year-round. Maybe it will be your first visit, but we’re betting it won’t be your last!
