Mark, you did everything right. I would be proud to climb with you anytime, anywhere. Sometimes things don't go according to plans, but it isn't your fault.

"I have not yet seen a case of HACE in which the patient didn't ascend with AMS symptoms."
(Not my words.)
Personally I saw just one case where the person was supposedly diagnosed with HACE. I always heard that HACE was the endpoint of AMS, and the person usually presents with the familiar symptoms of AMS beforehand. In the case I saw, the person had been vomiting and had a severe headache, and eventually was totally unable to walk; but the other symptoms had been going on for at least 2 hours.
