, it's like any ski trip really
I was in great shape and hiked and snow skied all over Colorado and never had a problem with elevation. Not sure why, but Cusco kicked the ever living shite out me. I had the worst headache for 24 hours that I have ever had and woke up at night to catch my breath on several occasions. The Farmacia gave me glucose pills and I chewed Coca leaves - nothing helped. Finally acclimated.
Advice - DO NOT DRINK the first night you are there. Machu Pichu however is not that high.
