Altitude affects some people at heights as low as 7000 feet. At 9k everybody is starting to feel it (granted at varying degrees). As stated previously acclimatization is the key. Couple times during the summer I hump a 35-50 pound pack into the Wind River Mts for fly fishing. Most of those 5-7 day stretches are spent above 10k and day hikes can take us up to 11.7k. Much much easier to get to those altitudes on the back of a CB1100 like I did today
