Due to the high elevation of 5600 feet and higher, newcomers to Colorado may experience high altitude sickness. Please refer to the following information:
Mild Altitude Sickness -- Symptoms usually occur within 8-24 hours of arriving at elevation and may include headache, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, fatigue or weakness, dizziness or lightheadedness, and difficulty sleeping. Alcohol should be avoided as it can interfere with diagnosing symptoms.
Moderate Altitude Sickness -- The headache becomes more severe and resistant to conventional pain medicine. It is not medically safe for all persons to be at high elevations. If you have any medical problems, especially those related to the HEART AND LUNGS, check with your physician before leaving home.
