I'd say yeah, pants will be a good idea. It's constant sun exposure out there, and if you have any likelihood of burning I'd cover up (I will be myself, for sure). And I agree , don't worry about planning your zeros. Your body will tell you when you need them.

Mojave seems like a strange place to take two days off.  Other choices around there: Agua Dulce, Kennedy Meadows, Lone Pine.

Unless you have specific activities (such as your IT tests) you decision to nero, zero, or double-zero is generally going to be made while you are on the trail.

I'm a big fan of planning ahead, even in detail, but just don't lock yourself into the plan once you are on the trail.
