When we driver to Denver, it seems that we do not clime at all, when we get there, we're a mile in the sky.

When we drive to Wabigoon, it's up, and down hill a lot, but we're at about the altitude we started at.
Just under 600’ here near near Lake Hurons Saginaw Bay.

Don't know, don't care here. 150 maybe- I'm on a ridge.

I do remember that in Barrow the airport was at 11 feet.

In Kotzebue, probably lower....an unusually high pressure system once stranded several AK Air jets on the runway for several days. The altimeters read below sea-level and locked up, set off red light, maybe, so the wuss pilots wouldn't /couldn't take off. .After the first, a mechanic came in on the next flight, which also got stranded.

Steve R- a "short" pilot, with 20 years Arctic experience had no problem third flight - said he didn't see no red light.... smile. and 50 feet up the altimeter worked just fine. The next two flights also got stranded (" Hey, Steve said 'no problem' ", so there were 4 737-400's on the ground until the high lifted
