All this discussion of high altitude death has me thinking that the crew of Maggots has been pretty high...
For me:
On Skis 11,450 ft (Vail)
On Foot 17,769 ft (Thorung La pass - Annapurna Circuit, Nepal)
Results 1 to 25 of 119

The top of Pali at ABasin is 12500ish, isn't it? Is Loveland higher?

14,400, so not that high. But I still reserve the right to tell people how they should feel at 20k,

I think Loveland tops out at very close to 13,000. The new lift at Breck is about the same. Originally Posted by iceman

I was wondering that. I thought my high would be A-Basin and looked at the map. The peak is over 13k but the lift service is alot lower. I am sure others will chime in. Originally Posted by iceman

Gosh I've been high so many times I'm not sure if any one experience was higher then another.
As far as the non pot smokin kind of high goes somewhere in the 14000 range for me. I've hiked Long's, Grey's, Torrey's, you know all the easy 14ers. Ski wise I guess it would be either top of A-basin, or that peak next to Long's, I forget it's name (maybe I have smoked to much pot)

The only thing worse than the feeling that you are going to die is the realization that you probably won't.

14,433 (Elbert) - on foot
Top of Norway lift (higher than Pali) at A-Basin - ~12,900? - on skis
~45,000 ft in a 747 avoiding turbulence. The pilot actually pointed out the curvature of the earth. Really neat to see.
