+1 on disc brakes.  Not for any better stopping ability, but because large 
chunks of the divide are at the dog end of nowhere and you can stagger a 
lot further on a battered wheel with a disc brake than you can (safely) do 
with one with a rim brake pulled all the way open to clear the wildly 
staggering rim.    (Also applicable with the Homer + new fork approach; get 
a fork that has disc mounts and mullet your way to glory.)
