CLIMATE, RECOMMENDED CLOTHING:
Summers are generally of short duration with pleasant warm days
and cool nights. Freezing temperatures can sometimes occur during
summer months. Sub-zero lows are common in the winter; dress in warm
layers to keep dry and to prevent hypothermia. The altitude is 8,500
above sea level so pace yourself in any season, drink a lot of water, and use sunscreen.
