Great feedback, all. Very sound and thoughtful advice.
I'm clearly torn between a 24-70 and a fast wide prime.
Someone brought up other gear, and here's where my head is (percentage likely to bring):
I'll leave the tinier compulsories (micro fiber, backup memory card, raincover, dessicant, BR strap, etc.) off this list, but they'll probably find a way into my bag as well.

I'm clearly torn between a 24-70 and a fast wide prime.
Someone brought up other gear, and here's where my head is (percentage likely to bring):
- CPL/UV = 100%
- Lens hood = 100%
- Flash = 90% likely to tuck in the uber tiny 90EX (I almost never use a flash)
- Tripod / ball head / grads = 25% (If I want a personal day to shoot on this trip, it's coming.)
- Charger = 0% 2 full strength 5D3 batteries will last me a week -- I'll only take 200-300 shots, I don't shoot astro, etc.
- 2nd lens = 0% I want to be brave / clever / adaptable on this trip
