Answer: Because it is harder to draw breath in. And the cold

Explanation: At higher altitudes, it becomes more dangerous, and you can develop altitude-related illnesses such as HAPE and HACE. I read a book called<em> Into Thin Air</em>, and in the book the author goes into detail on the details/complications of climbing Mt.Everest and oxygen needs. Mountain climbers use canisters of oxygen called <u>Supplemental Oxygen.</u>
