Boiling Temperature of Water At Different Altitudes

Approximate Boiling Temperatures of Water

Altitude........Temperature
Sea Level.......212 degrees F
984 ft............210 degrees F
2,000 ft........208 degrees F
3,000 ft........206 degrees F
5,000 ft........203 degrees F
7,500 ft........198 degrees F
10,000 ft.......194 degrees F
20,000 ft.......178 degrees F
26,000 ft.......168 degrees F

Note: Each 500 foot increase in altitude causes a drop of about 1° in the boiling point.
