Hi, all:
I drink about 12-20 glasses of water a day but lately I feel that I am dehydrated. I am waking in the morning feeling pretty dehydrated. I am currently at a higher altitude than I normally am so maybe I need more water? If so how much? Any input is appreciated!

i know altitude can affect you, and that when at higher altitudes, you do need to drink more water. I always thought it was more to ward off headaches that can accompany altitude sickness though.
I usually drink 6-8 more glasses of water than usual when I am in the mountains.
