Hydrate at altitude
Denver’s dry air and 5,280-foot elevation dehydrate fast—carry water and sip regularly, even in cooler months.
Footwear matters on concrete
Wear cushioned walking shoes; the route is flat but mostly on hard sidewalks and alley surfaces for 1.5–2 miles.
Charge before you go
Download the app on Wi‑Fi and start with a full battery or a small power bank—photo prompts and maps drain phones.
