Preparation for High Altitude?
I need tips and advice on how to prepare for a week spent 9,500-12,000 feet above sea level. The highest elevation I’ve experienced thus far was about 3,000-5,000 feet above sea level :/ I AM NOT ready for 12,000 ft!

There isn’t a ton you can do if you don’t already have access to high elevations like that to do some hikes. Depending on how far in advance, endurance training can help.

it is pretty tough without already being some what acclimated to higher elevations. Being in good shape helps a ton with your body adjusting.
