cheers.

Interesting booklet. If you view the version recommended above, be aware that it is a pdf format, with two pages per view, ready to be printed on two sides of each page, then folded in the middle and bound, resulting in a nice booklet. So you have to pay attention to the page numbers, and alternate reading left side, right side as you go down through the pages. Then when you get to the end, page back up, reading alternate pages bottom-to-top.

Unfortunately, the 44-page booklet only covers acclimatization on one page, (page 11), and does not give much advice specific to Whitney and Sierra hikers.
