Then he will turn to the highly prized unicorn Warrant and say, Chief what’s this??

this guy was found a week later, severely dehydrated and with that same smile on his face...
I agree with most of these posts, hydration is key. As far as coffee, or other caffeinated drinks (mine is Diet Coke, not coffee), you will want to take some Aspirin with you. Not only does it help in general, but if you go cold turkey on caffeine, a good idea at altitude, you'll probably get withdrawal headaches. Aspirin is a great option here.

Update: crested 12k feet today with only a little light headedness! Definitely felt a little dizzy and my ears have become plugged and released all day! ! But nothing more! Actually camping at 10k’ tonight and feel great!
