Reminder about Altitude + Alcohol

All,

If you choose to drink in Ouray, please please remember that it will affect you MUCH more differently than normal if you're a flat-lander like myself.

Last year I had about 1.5 beers before it really hit me - of course I was exhausted, etc etc.....but...

anyway, something to keep in mind. It'll also dehydrate you and you need LOTS more hydration at this altitude...

Yeah I was thinking the same thing... don't give away our secret, I would look like a god if no one knew altitude affected them.
