What temperature were you seeing?
What is the actual weight of your trailer as you were having this issue?

Just because the clutch fan comes on high and you see the temp guage rise to the other side of center does not mean it is overheating.
At that spot your coolant is only about 220F if you put a guage on it.
Oil temps are fine up to 248F and you were not there.
With my 2013 I could take Monarch pass at speed or even the Eisenhower Pass without issue.
If the clutch fan comes on like an airplane then let it do its thing.

Doesn't hurt to make sure the engine air filter is clean and spray a garden hose both directions through the cooling stack. Even if the A/C condenser, intercooler, and radiator look clean, fine dust can build up and make a difference.

If this is abnormal for your truck and camper you may have been facing a very stiff headwind without realizing it due to power of the truck. The truck may have been working harder than you realized. Couple years ago our truck was running warmer than normal and fuel economy was way down. Then I realized the grass was blowing down flat in the opposite direction !

And what makes you think it derated in power?
