Hello,
I'm going to be in Maui in mid July. I will be diving a couple of days and also hiking at Haleakala, which is over 10,000 feet. Of note, I do get altitude sick around 7000 feet, but I have meds for that.
My question is this....I remember somewhere in my training, about a waiting period for flying (24 hours?) and I assume this applies to high altitude hiking/climbing. Any opinions as to whether I should go to Haleakala first, then dive, or visa versa?
Thanks, Beck
