"I'm quite sure that if she had made the reeds in the high and dry climate, she could have gotten them to work, but at the time that wasn't an option."

I'm not so sure. I have talked to and bought reeds from makers who specialized in high-altitude reeds. Because you have to remove so much cane to get them to respond at altitude, you must start with a smaller diameter tube cane. If I were to use the standard 10.5mm cane that I use at sea level, they would flatten out after removing so much wood and be too closed to play properly.
