Don't just cave or bivy.. You have a solid posibility of being stuck in a couple spots (without cave potential) in multiday storms with high wind.. With a little luck you'll waltz the whole route in perfect weather....BUT you may not.

Dragonfly is a good stove.... the XGK is a little better for melting snow. I'm an XGK fanatic. Many peopel have used whisperlights. However it takes significantly longer to melt/boil water with a whisperlight than an XGK or Dragonfly
