1 answer

To find the elevation of base camp, we need to subtract the descent from Lisa's starting elevation.

Starting elevation: 457 feet above sea level
Descent: 221 feet

To find the elevation of base camp: 457 feet - 221 feet = 236 feet above sea level

Therefore, the correct response is 236 feet above sea level.
