I would not worry to much if you only go up to 2000ft.
At zero ft the density is 0,07245lb/ft3. At 2000ft it is about 0,07lb/ft3. Thats about 3,5 % difference. If the ECU did not compensate for it at all the mixture would be close to 0,5 richer (13/1 would be 12,5/1) but the ECU is compeasating for it so it is no worries.
I spend a some time going up to 9000 ft or so and there it makes a difference but at 2000 ft would not worry at all.
