Data said: I currently live just a bit over a mile up in NM, so it's not a big deal now, although at 14k ft you still notice it.
Back then, I was living at about 300ft above sea level, so 14ers were several days of hiking at 8k, then 10k, then 12k, just so that I could actually get through the last 500 ft of elevation gain near the summit.
Hiking in the Sierras was the worst, mainly because I didn't have time to acclimate whenever I was there (usually long weekends or job interviews), so a 5 mile trail up to a 12k ft pass was enough to almost bonk on the way up.
Normally a week at altitude doesn't give you time to feel amazing when you drop to lower altitude. I've not been below 4500ft for the last 1.5 years since I moved, but I'm interested to see how I feel when I go back to 900ft when I visit the family in December. From what I hear, I should be able to drink everyone under the table at lower elevations.
Damn that's awesome. One of my close friends said that years ago when he went to visit and work in a super high elevation area he said he smoked when he got there and literally passed out

It's an amazing state, I'm a big fan of the Valles Caldera, especially in winter.
And if you get tired of the scenery, then the Colorado Rockies are a few hours away, and the Canyonlands of Utah just a few hours more.

Yeah the elevation ain't no joke. I took my folks up to Wyoming to the Tetons, and we went on a walk -- my mom, who is very fit and strong for her age, was badly out of breath just after a short walk. Back home she can walk for 90 minutes straight. But that's in a city that's barely above sea level. There a five minute walk made her appear that she just ran in the Olympics.
The Teton region is around like 6,500 feet in elevation (and up), so the huge difference got to her in a major way.

Do you have a good relationship with your mailman/woman?(for example mine has seen one of my pot plants a few years ago and never did or said anything about them, much cool very yes) if so I'd say make or buy a lock box and give him/her a key for the bigger items(obviously make the box unstealable via permanently sitting it or booby trapping the fuck out of it(booby trap may get you in legal trouble depending on the state you live in so use that option with caution)

i think they would need a sign directing where to put the package not just at the mailbox on the street but the gravel road is not obvious to deliver on
