At an elevation of 6,611 feet above sea level, the air in Basalt contains less oxygen than the air at lower elevations. If possible, arriving to Basalt with extra time ahead of your procedure will allow your body a chance to slowly adjust to the change in elevation. Patients are also encouraged to drink plenty of water and avoid caffeinated and alcoholic beverages prior to their procedure. For more information on adjusting to higher altitudes, read "How to Stay Healthy at High Altitude."

Located in the Rocky Mountains, the temperature and weather in Basalt can change suddenly and we encourage visitors to check weather forecasts and pack plenty of warm clothes and layers for their stay.

The sun is very powerful in our thin mountain air, so it is important to apply sunscreen and use sunglasses, even during the winter months.
