    I don't think anyone has mentioned it, but do not drink any alcohol after you arrive in Colorado. It will slow the acclimatization process. Also, abstaining for a few days before you leave can't hurt either. Hydration and good rest are your best friends.

    Good call. Again, I recommend taking a tab or two at home to make sure you don't react. Have fun in Colorado!
