What to Bring The Laboratory is equipped with dormitory-style living quarters for residents, including a kitchen, dining room, and a washing machine. Sometimes an Innkeeper is in residence to assign beds and linens, and to cook lunch and dinner. Meals may not be not available to drop-in or unscheduled visitors. At the altitude of 10,600 feet the weather even in midsummer is cool enough to require jackets during the day. Rain gear, sturdy footwear, a hat, and sunscreen are essential.
Residents provide their own personal sundries.
Lab residents should bring their own hand tools, research supplies and equipment, personal computers, and uninterruptable power supplies. Expenses and Fees Billing is prepared and mailed at the end of the summer research season, usually in September or October, when all costs have been itemized. The cost of meals is pro-rated among those who eat at the Laboratory. Reservations for lodging must be made in advance. This fee has recently been increased to more accurately account for costs of operating the facility.
