Tips for Better Health at High Altitude Vail is located at an altitude of 8,200 feet (2,500 meters) above sea level. Due to the lower levels of oxygen at this altitude, you may experience headaches, shortness of breath, fatigue, insomnia, and light-headedness. These symptoms can usually be treated with a low salt/high carbohydrate diet and increased water consumption. Always remember that the effects of altitude sickness are advanced by the consumption of alcohol and high levels of activity.

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.

ALTITUDE SICKNESS INFORMATION The mountains of Colorado are among the most beautiful parts of America and we hope you will enjoy every minute of your visit. But some of the very features which make the high country so attractive may cause problems unless you recognize and know how to prevent them. Here’s why:

sunburn can spoil your stay. No matter how tanned you may be, use a protective cream. “Cold sores” are aggravated at high altitudes but might be prevented by a medication (Acyclovir) which your doctor can prescribe.

Snow blindness – which is sunburn of the eyes – is a real danger, especially on new snow, and even on foggy or cloudy days. Wear sunglasses or goggles with ultraviolet protection.

As you go higher, barometric pressure decreases, the air is thinner and less oxygen is available. It’s also colder and drier, and the ultraviolet rays from the sun are stronger. Each of these changes may have an unpleasant effect on your body.

Temperature falls about three degrees Fahrenheit for every 1,000 feet of altitude, and it can get cold very fast.

Take extra clothes. Hypothermia (low body temperature) can occur even in the summer if you are wet or windchilled, hungry, tired, or poorly dressed. The warning signs are clumsiness and trouble thinking or talking clearly, irritability and confusion. Watch for these signs in each other. If in doubt, stop, warm up, eat and drink – and if necessary send for help.

Altitude Many popular resorts are 8,000 to 9,500 feet above sea level, and the mountain summits rise a mile higher.

You will probably notice that your breathing is faster or deeper and you may feel short of breath, especially when you exercise. This is the body’s first and most effective response to altitude. Your heart is likely to beat faster also; this too, is a helpful normal reaction.

Most people dress appropriately in winter, but be sure boots and gloves are not wet or too tight. If you lose sensation in your face, fingers or toes, stop, look for frostbite (numb, cold, white areas) and take time to warm up.

However, you may also develop a headache, a touch of nausea, or unusual tiredness; some people even have trouble sleeping. Depending on the altitude, 20 to 30% of all visitors from near sea level have one or several of these symptoms, which we call acute mountain sickness or AMS. Children are slightly more susceptible; the older you are, the less likely you are to be affected.

Water The crisp mountain air is exhilarating, but it’s also very dry. You lose much more water than you realize in exhaled air and from sweating. It’s very important to maintain the body water, so drink two or three times more than usual. Fill your canteen in the hotel. Don’t drink from streams. Juices and water are better than tea, coffee or alcohol. Remember that at high altitudes, one alcoholic drink does the work of two.

These symptoms usually go away in a day or two. If they grow worse, or if you are worried, be sure to consult a doctor. If you develop a worsening cough, increasing shortness of breath or feel like you have fluid in your lungs, see a doctor at once! Altitude illness, though usually minor, can become serious quite rapidly, so don’t take it lightly or try to tough it out!

Injuries Accidents can happen at any time to anyone, but they are more common when you are cold, tired or hungry. Remember that lack of oxygen can impair your judgement, leading you to do foolish things. Whether hiking, skiing, playing golf or tennis, give your body plenty of food and water to function efficiently. Don’t keep going when you’re very tired; quit while you’re ahead.

Before you leave home, you can do a few things to decrease the effects of altitude. Our studies show that spending two nights at a modest altitude like 5,000 feet decreases symptoms of altitude sickness at higher altitudes. Eat more foods which are high carbohydrates, drink more water and reduce your sodium intake.

Diamox1 is a prescription drug which prevents the unpleasant symptoms for many people. Ask your doctor about its use.

Illness Of course you are as likely to get a cold, flu or upsetstomach in the mountains as you are at home. But altitude illness feels very much like flu, or a hangover, and it can be a lot more serious. If you have any doubt, get medical help. Don’t let ignorance or carelessness spoil your stay.

Once you arrive, take it easy for the first day or two.

Reduce alcohol, caffeine, and salty foods. Drink more water than usual. Salt causes your body to retain fluid (edema), which increases the severity of altitude illness.

Above all – listen to your body! Don’t push. If you feel worse and worse, get help! Minor altitude symptoms occasionally become life threatening.

There is great personal joy, beauty and spiritual peace to be discovered in the mountains. Treat yourself with respect and enjoy your stay.

Temperature The sun has more power in the thin air and a bad

1. Recent experience suggests that a small dose of Diamox suffices: 125mg the morning before you are to arrive at increased altitude, again that evening, and each morning and night for two days after arrival. SOURCE: COLORADO ALTITUDE RESEARCH INSTITUTE
