The levels of acute mountain sickness (AMS) and the high altitude acclimatization can be assessed by SpO2, heart rate and AMS scores. In this research, I recorded these data of 8 male people (age 18 to 30) who did a trekking in the Kingdom of Bhutan in September 2015. I recorded the data twice a day, for 20 days. This trekking was carried out during 16 days at altitudes of 2000m - 5000m above sea-level. In the result, the scores changed with the ascent and high altitude acclimatization were observed. And the high altitude acclimatization was slightly better comparring to the 2 days climbing at Mt. Fuji (3776m) in Japan in Aug 2015, so AMS was also better in the trekking (5 people went both trekking and Mt. Fuji). The worst score of the AMS score was 5 points in the trekking and 11 points at Mt. Fuji (both points were the same examinee's record). The trekking strategy, previous study on high altitude medicine, actual trekking tactics of the ascent speed, the gained altitude per day and taking Diamox were inferred as the reasons of good acclimatization in the high altitude trekking.
