Location: Holiday Inn 1129 N. Summit Blvd. Frisco, Colorado 80443 USA Voice: +1 970 668 5000 Fax: +1 970 668 0718 US toll-free reservations: +1 800 HOLIDAY Cutoff Date: Please reserve your room by 1 January 1998. A block of rooms at the Holiday Inn has been reserved under the group name "ISO C" at the special meeting rate of 129 USD per day single occupancy. The rooms have been reserved from the Saturday night before the meeting through the Saturday night after the meeting. The hotel is a 1.5 hour drive or shuttle ride west from Denver International Airport on a major interstate highway, I-70. It is located in the Rocky Mountains, just west of the North American Continental Divide, at an altitude of approximately 2900m (approximately 9500 feet) above sea level. The hotel is adjacent to the Frisco exit from I-70 (exit 201), on the south side of the highway, easily visible before taking the exit. From Denver International Airport, simply follow the exit road for 10 minutes to I-70, and then go west for about 1.5 hours. Car rentals are unnecessary but can be obtained at Denver International Airport. A shuttle runs from the airport to the hotel and back 9 times a day at a special "ISO C" rate of 35 USD each way. The shuttle company is Resort Express, +1 970 468 7600, or US toll-free at +1 800 334 7433. Free bus lines link the hotel with surrounding attractions, including local ski areas such as Arapahoe Basin, Breckenridge, Copper Mountain, and Keystone. The free bus lines also go to other recreational facilities including areas for cross-country skiing and snowmobiling, as well as nearby towns. A low-cost bus goes to Vail and Beaver Creek. If you rent a car, please be aware that there could be a snow storm in progress when you arrive, which will require special driving skills and lengthen travel times.

The rarefied atmosphere does affect logistics. Dry Skin: You will probably want to bring some good, nongreasy hand cream even if you normally never use any. Lip balm is helpful as well. Altitude Sickness: There is 30-40% less oxygen at this altitude than at sea level. Most people will never notice the difference except during vigorous exercise. However, a few people sometimes have difficulty. If you get severe headaches while visiting, it is best to see a doctor because it might be altitude sickness. Doctors in the area can prescribe medicine that will help. The ultimate cure is just to return to a lower altitude for a while. If you think you might be susceptible to altitude sickness, it would be best to spend a night in Denver (about half the altitude of Frisco) before coming to the meeting. Gradually increasing the altitude can lessen the probability of altitude sickness. Physical Exertion: People in good physical shape will be capable of exercising just as hard at high altitude as at sea level, although for a shorter amount of time. Even so, it is best for everyone to avoid exertion for the first day in Frisco. This gives the body time to adapt to the new conditions and will make exercise easier later on during the visit. It also reduces the probability of altitude sickness. Temperature: Expect anywhere from -20C to 0C (-4F to 32F). If a warm front comes through, it could get warmer than this. When outdoors, it is best to dress in removable layers because the temperature can vary considerably during the day. If you plan to go night skiing at Keystone (an experience not to be missed), prepare for temperatures as low as -25C (-13F) at the top. This is a feature, not a bug. Below about -7F, the snow takes on a special quality of slipperiness that makes skiing even more fun. Weather: Highly variable. There could be a blizzard or you might never see a cloud the entire time. The only thing I can promise is no rain.
