Do any of you folks take along a small oxygen bottle while hunting at high altitude? As I get older I feel the effects of altitude sickness more and more...thanks.

If one is indeed dealing with altitude sickness, get down right now.

some company rents out some sort of tent that you put over your bed and you sleep at night at lower oxygen percentages for several weeks before the hunt to prep your body for high altitude hunting.....from what ive heard it produces good results and can drop altitude sickness down to nearly nonexistant
