Good point. I was thinking that the affects of temperature (-30F change) and altitude (+7000 ft change) would offset (i.e., tire pressure increases about 0.5 lb per 1,000 ft of increase in elevation, but tire pressure decreases about a lb per every 10 degree F). But since I did not let the tires cool, the temperature effect was opposite of what I expected. The tires were actually hotter than when I measured them, so the net result was probably about a 6 lb increase in tire pressure.
