Nice, amazingly dry.

One thing to think about for future adventures. Consider going up and over. Over night bivy gear weighs a lot less than most think. Combine that with a "lazy" second day with moving camp up even 1000' (like up to Iceberg Lake) makes the summit day shorter and gives one not only more time to descend but allows one to take the easy and faster way down.
