Default Tranny temp got up to 257°F

2009 Ram 1500 4.7L.. drove up 6700 ft to get to a lake and tranny got up to 257°F. Is this temperature too high? Any suggestions on how to keep it cooler? Enjoy your father’s day weekend!

That is getting up there..... If you don't have an external trans cooler, install one, if you do have one, install a larger one.
