    Boost makes canned oxygen just for things like this! It's carried in planes and by mountain climbers. Handy for COPD! Those are the toughest guys on earth! Eat more leaves! I would like a bagfull😊 Gold, hypoxia, and coca..the crash was rough on Parker 😂

    Its crazy that gold is 17,000 feet up. All these millenia and it still hasnt worked its way down at all. Most Alaskan and Yukon gold is in valleys washed down over time. Settling on top of bedrock.

    Next time you have those head aches take a mate ( infusion ) of coca leaf in warm water. Gets rid of head ache within minutes.

      Air is 79% nitrogen. It's the lack of oxygen that cause altitude sickness.

    Parker you should acclimatize yourself to elevation before ever exerting yourself in high altitude. Just a suggestion for future reference.
