About this listen

Host Celeste Skye explores high-altitude monitoring protocols used by mountaineers to prevent deadly altitude sickness. She covers the 1,000-foot-per-day rule, acclimatization checkpoints, and the heel-to-toe walk test that saved a trekker's life at 14,000 feet. Learn why the body's signals become unreliable at altitude and how systematic monitoring transforms ambition into survival.
