Re: Altitude Question?
We had one person on the Black Bear trail that was suffering from altitude sickness. There is little one can do except get acclimated which takes time at altitude or sleeping in an altitude tent/room.
What most people don't understand is that we get dehydrated at altitude simply through breathing. With the air less dense, it also carries less humidity (water) and just the act of breathing dehydrates you. Yes, water is key to surviving, avoid drinking lots of alcohol (like that is going to happen) and caffeine (a couple of great coffee shops are in town, that aint gonna happen either) and hard exertion.
But, yes, drink, drink, drink...water that is...
