Wow!  I had no idea there would be that much difference.  I have been 
over 10,000 feet many times in Guatemala, though.  There is one place 
called Alaska where there is frost every morning of the year.  You 
don't think of frost in Guatemala!  I'm sure it will be much colder 
at 12,000 feet in California.  Layers, layers!

Thanks -

Tina
