Hydration
Dry air and altitude increase fluid loss. Add electrolytes rather than volume alone.

A more intelligent way to arrive, recover and enjoy every day in the mountains.

Arriving at altitude
The first forty-eight hours matter more than any treatment
East Village sits high. Pacing the arrival is what makes the rest of the week work.
01 · Before arrival
Increase water in the two days before you fly, plan a lighter first evening and book arrival for early afternoon where possible.
02 · First 24 hours
Hydrate steadily, keep alcohol minimal, eat earlier than usual and treat the first day as an easy day rather than a full ski day.
03 · First 48 hours
Most people feel altitude most on the second night. Prioritise sleep, keep caffeine early and let intensity build gradually.
04 · Day three and beyond
By the third day the body has usually adapted. This is when long days ski best — and when a spa afternoon pays for itself.
Recovering after snow
Heat, cold and movement — in that order
Mobility
Ten minutes of hips, ankles and thoracic rotation before the first chair does more than a long stretch after.
Heat
Sauna or hot tub after skiing for gentle circulation and a calmer evening.
Cold
Brief cold exposure for legs after heavy days — short, comfortable, never forced.
Nutrition
Protein at lunch, not only at dinner. Mountain days under-fuel more often than they over-fuel.
Sleep
Sleep is the whole recovery programme. Cool rooms, earlier dinners, screens away at altitude.
