Elevation changes/jetting on the trail? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was curious what you guys out there do when wheeling up into higher elevations with a carb. I just moved to Colorado and am anxious to go wheeling. The elevation at home is about 6000', and some of the trails out there have peaks in the 11,000' + range. I am running a q-jet, so changing jets and metering rods is not the easiest thing to do on the trail, but will be done if needed. What are some of the things you guys do?
