Health may be a consideration. I am in my early forties now, but lived there for a couple of years in the mid-eighties. I relocated from the Detroit area. The altitude makes a big difference in oxygen density. In other words, it is harder to breathe. It takes some time to acclimate to that, and if you have any health issues - you may want to talk it over with your doctor. It was a bonus when I moved back to the Detroit area though, because I much more breathing capacity than anyone I knew. (I think this explains why the mighty Red Wings have such a hard time with that damn Avalanche! :-)

I think it is because they have an ex-Blackhawk in goal.
