High
Altitude Health Tips
As you
ascend to higher altitudes the atmospheric pressure decreases, the air is
colder, drier, and less oxygen is available. Air temperature falls about 3
degrees Fahrenheit for every 1000 feet of elevation. Above 8000 feet, altitude
sickness affects 20 to 30% of visitors from low altitude to some degrees.
Avoid
Altitude Illness
- Increase
fluid intake
- Decrease
salt intake
- Start with
moderate physical activity
- Eat high
carbohydrate, low fat meals
- Reduce
alcohol and caffeine intake
(Yeah
Right!)
- Feeling
worse? Seek help
Prevent
Sunburn
- Use
sunscreen (SPF 15-30)
- Always
wear sun glasses or goggles
Prevent
Cold Injury
- Dress in
layers
- Avoid wet
clothing
- Wear
properly fitting boots and gloves
- Drink and
eat frequently
- Watch each
other for warning signs (confusion, difficulty speaking, loss of
coordination, etc.)

application to the trip captain.
- Children under 18 years of age must be accompanied by

- The Board reserves the right to refuse any trip

- When a trip has been filled, a priority waiting list will
be established for qualified trip applicants who have signed the trip

waiting list accepts a position on the trip, he is liable for all monies
due at that time and assumes the same type of liabilities as required of
other trip participants.

dates, and places. It will be his or her responsibility to meet this
schedule or to assume the responsibility, financially and otherwise, for
his or her travel arrangements.

bad weather conditions or from other forces beyond the Chattanooga Ski
Club’s control.

injury to an individual during the trip or for the loss of or damage to
personal property of any individual.
- The Chattanooga Ski Club offers the trip in good faith
and reserves the right to make any changes in the trip deemed necessary to
the best interests of the Chattanooga Ski Club and of the trip
participants. A participant is bound by the stated conditions of the trip.
- Single participants that do not request a single room or
have not identified a roommate will be informed of other single
participants not having roommates. If a roommate can not be obtained, the
single traveler assumes the financial responsibility for a single room.
- The trip captain is the designated representative of the
Chattanooga Ski Club. Any deviations by trip participants to contracted
provisions of the trip, for example deviations to travel and/or lodging
accommodations must be approved by the trip captain. Participants that
deviate from the contracted provisions of the trip accept any additional
costs resulting from the deviation.
