I live at 3,700 meter (approx 12,000 feet). Fires don't burn as hot, because of lack of oxygen. Clothes and puddles dry faster from the lack of humidity. Most of the major fires we have here have been fed by combustible fuels.
It takes about 2 or 3 days to acclimatize and about 2 weeks to be able to do strenuous sports. Water boils at a lower temperature.
The climate here is desert-like. The sun pounds down and since there isn't much atmosphere it is easy to sunburn. At night it gets very cold.
As others have said, my guess is your new briquettes are very good.
