Having been in high altitude only once and spent my life living at three feet elevation, what is special about camping at altitude?

If you've never experienced the mountains, do your self a favor and rent mile mile and a half. Pay the extra for the HD version and enjoy. The is available thru iTunes, Amazoon, Google movies, etc.
