I'd suggest getting an IR gun and checking brake temps every time you pull into a roadside rest, etc. That will give you a rough idea of normal temps.
I do that and this past summer came off a mountain near Pendleton Oregon and I was at 500 degrees after coming down faster than usual. Normally I'll see 150 to about 300.
Was starting to get just a hint of fading so pulled off the road and let them cool. Had them checked after the trip and all was fine.
