STEAMBOAT SPRINGS — Nearly 200 people turned out Thursday to learn about thriving at altitude as part of the Steamboat Pilot & Today’s Longevity Project.
The audience, gathered at the Strings Music Pavilion in Steamboat Springs, first heard from a panel of local experts on the subject of high-altitude living and how it affects the mind and body.

The 2019 Longevity Project began with a four-part reporting series from the Pilot & Today published in September. Local individuals who were nominated for their ability to “thrive at altitude” were also featured during the month.
