At 10,000' water boils at ~192°-193°, it's ~1°per 500' of change from sea level. Good call on the flush. I'll defer to the coolective wisdom on the longevity of the CSC and CMS, but maybe you have found a weird threshold on the amount of moisture in your fluid based on elevation. At 10k and an overnight park are you good until everything warms up?

If you have a chance the 550 (million dollar highway, google search it) to Ouray has some interesting driving. Make sure your brake and clutch are operating... if you hate 1000' dropoffs 4 inches to the right of the yellow line you might want to skip it.
