[quote=Anonymous]I think from the standpoint of being in the running world 24/7 it could be worth it. He will learn just as much from the other campers as he will from the coaches. From the standpoint of altitude - that will be short-lived. I lived at 9500 feet for 4 years, it would take me 4-6 weeks to really acclimate and 3-5 days to lose it back at sea level. However, those first days at sea level I was unstoppable. I remember a friend asking me once the day I came back from Colorado if I was even breathing because I did it so little, lol. Ideally I would take him at least several days early to start the acclimation process. On the other hand it will give him a great base to start with, regardless of altitude, going into the xc season.
