The three of us who went to Peru GPS'd the Carancas
meteorite crater, and all three came up with the same
altitude, 3,792 meters. It should now be the highest
meteorite found.
This is ~11,900 feet.
I know it was a tad difficult to breath up there.

Ps, I am working on a webpage right now to show our
trip to Peru.
