I forget the timing of some of the trips and whose filters we used on what trips, but most of that experience with my squeeze filters were while I was living in Baltimore. There is still a big difference in the humidity between there and Denver though so humidity is likely a big factor. I hadn't even considered that elevation might be a factor in actual moisture in the air, but both places are pretty close to sea level.
