The pass by Mt Salkantay was just over 15K ft at the highest point. I’d been training in Colorado so didn’t get sick, but definitely felt it! One person in our group did get a bit sick, our guide had him huff some kind of tincture. The coca candies/tea helped a bit as well.
Edit to add: the first day in Cuzco is pretty rough though, spent all day lounging and napping. It’s around 11K ft.
