PREPARING FOR HIGH ELEVATION
WHAT WEATHER SHOULD BE EXPECTED?
September in the Sierra brings an array of weather from sunny mid 70s °F temperatures, to rain, hail, thunderstorms, wind, and yes, on a rare occasion, snow. Be sure to pack warm layers, various jackets for wind, rain, and cool nights, sunscreen, comfortable shoes for all weather, and of course summer clothing for those hot, sunny days. The festival proceeds, rain delays and schedule changes possible.
WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT HIGH ELEVATION LIVING?
At high altitude, you receive 30% more ultraviolet radiation than at sea level. Sunscreen and sunglasses are essential. The weather in the mountains, no matter the time of year, can change quickly. Bring layers of protective clothing for all types of weather. Drink plenty of water especially on hot days when you are outside and/or exercising to avoid dehydration. The effects of medications and alcohol at high altitude are magnified, so be sure to consult your physician on prescriptions.
CAN I GET WATER IN THE FESTIVAL?
There is a water refill station located near the restrooms at the entrance area. The bar will not be selling single use plastic water bottles. You may bring in a sealed water bottle with you into the venue. Also bring your empty refillable water bottles.
