"There has always been talk that Denali, in particular, and Aconcagua, are more like much higher mountains in terms of how thin the air is (low O2 pressure) and so how high they feel. Mostly this is just marketing - Argentines are annoyed they don't have an 8000m peak and Americans are annoyed their mountain is not the biggest - to bolster visitors and prestige."

Totes agree. I cant help but roll my eyes when I read or hear people going on that it feels higher because of the latitude.
