[pct-l] elevatoin sickness



For this and all other medical issues that you might encounter in the
backcountry you should read "Medicine for Mountaineering and Other
Wilderness Activities" edited by James A. Wilkerson.  I consider this
indespensible knowledge for anyone that will be traveling more than 15-20
miles from a road.  It can be extremely boring to read cover to cover but it
was worth it.  I am going to force myself into reading it again to brush up
before I hit the trail but it really is boring reading.  You should too.
Peace and Love,
Matt
