Climate and Altitude –
Salt Lake City is located about 4,300 feet above sea level, with the surrounding mountain summits rising dramatically
above 10,000 feet. Many people coming from lower elevations will feel the altitude and should remember to take rests
and stay hydrated during walking or physical activity. People with heart conditions or other health problems that may be
affected by altitude should take precautions and/or consult their physician prior to coming.

possible changing conditions.
