The real issue here is the rate of ascent. There are some altitudes ( may
be different for each individual ) where some acclimatisation is
required. I find 14,000' to be the first stage where I need to
acclimatise. The usual advice is to climb to a higher altitude and come
back to a lower level for the night. My experience is almost entirely in
the Himalayas where even the base camp can be at 19,000'! Therefore, this
method works. If you are doing a quick climb to 14,000' and are coming
down immediately, you should be able to descend before the altitude
sickness hits you.
