Peak Experience
- Share via
The article on the high Andes trek (“Altitude Adjustment,” Dec. 13) described difficulties on the trek in a way that could not be further from the truth. I have taken hundreds of people on treks in the Peruvian Andes, and I have yet to see somebody suffering [with the altitude] in such a way. The acclimatization upon arrival prepares you and makes the trekking adventure in these remote mountains a wonderful experience.
