The sleeping at a low altitude is one I really noticed in Colorado. I never had any problems (and we were as high as 12,000 ft.) except the one night we stayed at 9,000+ ft. I woke up with a headache, and just felt pathetic. Otherwise, slept at around 6,000 and was OK. Although, I did notice some shortness of breath under heavier exertion. No big deal though. I tried to drink a lot of water! Probably a minimum of 60 oz per day - plus more at meals.

All Recco is good for is finding dead bodies
