Adjusting to High Altitude
Shoshoni is at an altitude of 8,600 feet above sea level. If you are visiting us from a lower altitude, you might want to consider these important points on your first few days here.
- Drink lots of water before coming and while you are staying at high altitude. You are more likely to become dehydrated at high altitude, and staying well hydrated will help to reduce the likelihood of symptoms.
- If you are coming from sea-level, stick with mild/moderate exercise or exertion for the first few days you are here to help you acclimate.
- If you have a serious health concern like high blood pressure, heart or respiratory conditions, please consult your doctor before coming to stay at high altitude.
Symptoms of Mild/Moderate Altitude Sickness
- Difficulty sleeping
- Dizziness or light-headedness
- Fatigue
- Headache
- Loss of appetite
- Nausea or vomiting
- Rapid pulse (heart rate)
- Shortness of breath with exertion
A combination of two or more of these symptoms may indicate altitude sickness, and may require that you descend to a lower altitude to help your body acclimate.
