Two more tips:

 

1)  Get over your fear of heights - you are gonna be up in the clouds all day long !!

 

2)  Service your suspension - riding that route with fork that in the first hour turns into a rigid, is not gonna do you any favors :-)

Hahaha at No.2 that could not have been fun for you.

Also if you are running XT brakes make sure they are 100% on hot day they tend to bind to the calipers.
