I like 2.4 - 2.6 volumes, some people go to 3 for ciders.
I also keg at 12 PSI and about 37°F, so about 2.6 volumes.
I wouldn't think elevation would matter since the gauge is not reading absolute pressure. It is the delta between ambient air pressure and what is in the keg.

You are correct. Elevation is irrelevant. The keg is a closed vessel. It will carbonate identically if in death valley or in orbit assuming both temperature and keg pressure are identical.
Temperature and pressure are the only variables in play. Over time disolved CO2 reaches equilibrium.
