Good to know! I took Diamox last time for a trip to 9,000 ft and didn't really feel much improvement over nothing. We are headed to the mountains for my birthday in February and even though it is only 5,000 feet last time we went there I got altitude sickness.
I will have to check out the photos later, maybe at lunch.
