We have a sanity spot in the Sierras at 9200ft. I spend as much time in the summer there as possible. I have found that if I take it easy for the first 24 hours, make sure to stay well hydrated, limit my alcohol and watch my diet. I adjust well. My second day I will increase my activity level, to include walking and even chopping/cutting wood, breathing excercises (in deep through the nose, out slow through the mouth, as if blowing out candles) helps. I will use aspirin if I develop a headache, but prefer to go slow. I find that including dried Papaya and/or Mango helps digestion which slows down.
Good Luck and enjoy the Mountains.
