A recent discussion took place focusing on the connection between health and altitude. Panelists at the Aspen Ideas: Health event explored the benefits of living at high elevations on the aging process.

Further details about the discussion are available from the Aspen Daily News. The topic of how altitude affects aging was a key point of consideration during the health panel.

The conversation also touched on the idea that skiing, an activity readily available can have positive effects on longevity, as suggested by the phrase "Ski more, live longer".
