Hi Wayne,
Going from a normal 200 feet to over 14,000 I'm surprised that you
can even walk, must less take pictures. ;-) I live at 1,800 feet
and it takes me close to a week to start breathing somewhat normal
when I visit West Yellowstone or other places with elevations of
6,000 feet +. But, Mitchelle and I were up at Mount Mitchell (6,800
ft.) in North Carolina on Tuesday and the elevation didn't bother me
at all. I guess I'm still enjoying the training from the southwest
trip where we spent four weeks at 5,000 to 9,000 feet.
Later,
Johnny
