Altitude sickness is a very common thing, especially for those who live at or closer to sea level compared to those who live at higher elevations. If you’re one of those people who live or spend the majority of your time closer to sea level, when you camp or hike at higher elevations, it might really get to you.
If you feel altitude sickness, you may have a headache, be dizzy, be nauseous, experience shortness of breath, be extra tired, have a hard time sleeping, or lose your appetite. In severe cases, you could even throw up. Yuck!
If you plan on camping at higher elevations this summer/year, make sure you read this first so you’re prepared.
When you travel to higher elevations, do you tend to suffer from altitude sickness? Do you have any remedies you could share with others in the comments? If so, please do. Thank you!
Oh, and if you do get sick often, this stuff is supposed to work well at preventing it.
Please leave a comment. If you do suffer from altitude sickness, do you know from experience at what elevation it kicks in?
