Carb altitude settings????

I am planning a trip out west this year in Aug.. We are going to ride a 4000 mile loop through the rocky mountains from New Mexico to Canada. We are going to be 5000 feet and higher for most of the trip. Any of you guys (or gals) have any input on carb settings for high altitude. I got on the dynojet site and compared the two kits and the only diff. in them appears to be jet sizes. They are only one size apart (150 for H. Alt. and 155 for reg.) I have it tuned with the 155's at 800 feet (home region) and it runs great! Not rich or lean just right. I was thinking about dropping the needles a notch or two. I ride the north GA mountains on a regular basis and it does great. I think they are about 4000 feet. I am going to try and go to the skyway this spring and see how it does up there at 6000 feet. Just wondering what you high altitude guys (if any) have your dynojet settings at. Thanks for any input.
