[QUOTE="FlGunner, post: 2424117, member: 94240"] I’m a flat land guy from Florida, we arrived a couple days early to adapt some before going up the mountain. We camped at 10k and hunted the Snowmass Maroon Bells wilderness and was at 10-13000’. I had a headache the first morning but after a couple of hours I was fine. My partner was a lil sick the first morning and he equated it to bring sea sick (we fish offshore a lot). He was fine as well after we got moving. The canned air was something I looked into and had but didn’t use it(folks said get it but forgot about it after we got to hunting). I believe your personal physical conditions will dictate a lot of how your body reacts if you are not adapt to being in that type of altitude. I’m a runner and my hunting partner is a marathon junkies. Your muscles need oxygen to perform and getting a shot of oxygen from a can may help momentarily but it won’t fix your physical conditioning. [/QUOTE]
