What about covering up the altimeter....fly what looks right....and keep your Mark I's looking outside the windows as a means to traffic avoidance.
That's actually how we do it in Alpine mountain flying, kind of: Fly level with some landmark (often someone's chalet ) and set the altimeter accordingly... on QNH of course, unless you want to unwind six to ten thousand feet off it.
