High Altitude Cooking and Food Safety (USDA)
"Fully one-third of the population of the United States lives at high altitudes. Cooking at a high altitude requires some special considerations. The thin air — less oxygen and atmospheric pressure — affects both the time and the temperature of most everything that's cooked. Where the altitude is above 3,000 feet, special cooking methods are needed for meat and poultry."
