Recognizing the Symptoms of Altitude Sickness in Colorado

Altitude sickness, also called acute mountain sickness (AMS) happens when your body struggles to adjust to much lower levels of Oxygen at higher elevations. 

 

Knowing the signs early can help you take action before symptoms worsen. (Headaches/Sleepless Nights) Our bodies suffer from low oxygen levels, especially a sudden change. 

 

Going from sea-level to 10,000ft can cause a big shift how our bodies function.
