FIRE SAFETY MESSAGE
Like all buildings, hotels can have fires. Plan what to do when you check in. You won’t have time to plan during a fire.
First, find two exits nearest your room. Be sure they are unlocked and unblocked.
Then, count doors between your room and exits so you’ll have a reference point if it’s smoky.
When you hear an alarm, act, don’t investigate.
If fire is in your room, get out and close the door. Once out, report the fire.
If fire is not in your room, leave if you can. First, feel your door. If it’s cool, open it slowly and go to the nearest exit. Crawl in smoke. Fresh air will be at the floor. Take your key so you can go back if you can’t use your exits.
Never use elevators during a fire. They could stop at the fire floor. If your room door is hot, don’t open it. Your room may be the safest place to be. Seal all cracks with wet towels. Shut off fans and air conditioners. Signal at your window. Call the Fire Department and wait to be rescued.

HIGH ALTITUDE TIPS
Sponsored by: Alpine Mobile Physicians
Welcome to Colorado’s High Country!
We’re glad you’re here and hope you enjoy every moment of your stay. The mountain environment is breathtakingly beautiful — but it can also take a little adjustment, especially if you’ve come from lower elevations. Follow these tips to stay comfortable and make the most of your visit.
Adjusting to Altitude
At elevations around 7,000–10,000 feet, the air is thinner and contains less oxygen. You may notice mild shortness of breath, a light headache, or fatigue during your first day or two. These are normal signs that your body is adjusting.
To help your body acclimate:
• Drink plenty of water — more than you think you need.
• Take it easy the first day and avoid overexertion.
• Go light on alcohol and caffeine, which can worsen dehydration.
• Eat well, focusing on healthy carbohydrates for energy.
If symptoms worsen or you feel dizzy, nauseated, or very short of breath, contact a local medical provider. Doctors in mountain towns are familiar with altitude illness and can help you recover quickly.
Sun & Weather
The mountain sun is powerful — even on cloudy days!
• Apply sunscreen and SPF lip balm frequently.
• Wear UV-protective sunglasses to prevent eye strain or snow glare.
• Dress in layers; afternoons can be warm, while evenings turn cool fast.
• Be alert for hypothermia (shivering, confusion, exhaustion). If it happens, get warm, eat, and rest immediately.

Stay Hydrated
Colorado’s crisp, dry air means your body loses moisture faster through breathing — often without realizing it. At higher elevations, about 20–25% of your fluid loss comes from increased breathing alone, as the thinner air makes you breathe more often.
Keep a water bottle with you and sip throughout the day to stay ahead of dehydration.
If you wear contact lenses, use lubricating drops as needed for comfort.
Outdoor Safety
Planning to hike, bike, or explore?
• Carry water, snacks, and extra layers — even on short outings.
• Treat or filter all stream and lake water before drinking.
• Watch the weather; afternoon storms can build quickly.
• Know your limits and rest before you get too tired.
• Always let someone know your route and expected return time.
Enjoy Your Stay
Take your time, breathe deeply, and soak in the incredible scenery that makes Colorado’s mountains so special. With a little preparation, you’ll feel great and have an unforgettable stay.
Enjoy your stay and take it slow — the mountains will wait for you!
