THE ALTITUDE EXPERIENCE: Successful Trekking and Climbing Above 8,000 Feet (Falcon)
Mike Farris
The first comprehensive guide for climbing above 8,000 feet
The one-volume resource for any traveler who will be at high altitude for any period of time, this guide contains organized technical information from medical and science texts as well as anecdotes from real climbers who share their own experiences, in the body as well as the mind. This new book also lists preparation and training guidelines for ascending altitude, tips on how to acclimate, what to bring, how to come down after descent, and how to treat altitude sickness if it occurs. This is a practical guide for anyone new to such travel, as well as an up-to-date guide with new information for experienced climbers.
Mike Farris is a biology professor at Hamline University and an experienced high-altitude climber who has traveled throughout North America, South America and the Himalayas. He lives in Northfield, Minnesota.

This product is decent for climbing, but I found it lacking a bit in comfort during longer treks. It worked well above 8,000 feet, but the fit could be better. Still, it’s held up nicely in tough conditions.

Excellent performance in rough conditions
I used this on my latest expedition and I’m very happy with its durability and performance. Climbed past 8,000 feet without any issues. It feels like new even after tough use. Worth every penny!

Arrived with minor defects
I was excited to use this for my upcoming climb, but it arrived with a few scuffs on it. It still works okay, but I expected better quality control. Just be aware of possible issues upon delivery.

Must-have for serious trekkers!
I've taken this gear on multiple climbs above 8,000 feet, and it performs like a champ. It’s lightweight yet durable and has held up so well after several trips. Highly recommend for anyone serious about trekking!
