Just back from La Marmotte, so can attest to the jaw dropping beauty of the area. Maybe consider some form of support, to haul the camping kit for the harder passes, as not only the length and gradient have to be considered, but also the thin air at that height.
Col du Galibier and others was daunting on a stripped down race bike, and with camping kit could be too much of a challenge?
