Thanks for the valuable information. We will be arriving in just a few days and will follow this advice. Keep doing these very good videos because they are so helpful.
Good recommendations, Erik! I've had altitude sickness only once on a hike and I never want it again! I headed back down and I was fine by the next day. In addition to staying hydrated, I like to keep some healthy snacks to munch on. Having a little something in my stomach really helps.
For anyone who opts to take medication to prevent altitude sickness, make sure to ask your doctor if those meds will act as an anti diuretic since this will also cause you to dehydrate faster and need to use the restroom more frequently
I'm a little worried about the altitude. I have a rare blood bone marrow cancer that limits my oxygen. Do you know where is Estes Park we could buy a couple cans of boost oxygen?
I'm so sorry to hear about your health issues. I know that there are services in Estes Park that rent out oxygen tanks. The one that I can think of is Lincare: 1184 Graves Ave # B, Estes Park, CO 80517, Tel: (970) 586-8447. I think they should be able to help you get what you need.
Thank you for pointing that out. This is the only photo I've ever licensed for TH-cam as I never get down there. Ugh!. Unfortunately, TH-cam doesn't allow me to edit a video after it is posted. How embarrassing!
Hi Erik, I made a small video showing my Desktop wallpaper as your picture, "Snow Morning in Estes Park," with flashing USB lights wrapped around it. Please look and see if you like it! (Or if you want it taken down, just tell me.) Love your photography and your channel. :)
Stranhely one of our fittest friends has serious problems with altitude sickness. It's a serious problem, nothing to ignore.
That’s not unusual. Often the most fit people ignore the symptoms and can end up in trouble.
Very good information here. Been coming to Estes Park since 1949. Will stop by your gallery this fall.
Thank you so much. Coming to Rocky for so many years is wonderful. You must know the park very well. We look forward to welcoming you at my gallery.

It shows a picture of Salt Lake City when you show Denver.

Im from Sweden, i have RMNP on my bucket list. I live at 30 meters of elevation. How many days do i have to wait before going on the Trail ridge road
I would recommend a day near Denver then a day in Estes Park before driving up to the top of Trail Ridge Road.
