HEALTH PROBLEMS AT HIGH ALTITUDE More often than not, attempts to predict performance at altitude are no better than guessing. However,over the age of 50, only very fit people who exercise regularly and have some experience with highaltitude should try to go to 15,000 feet. Narrowing of the arteries (atherosclerosis), which occurs ineveryone to varying degrees, further limits the delivery of ox
