8000' in 300+ miles over 3 days isn't really a lot of climbing. I trained for 6-gap (10k of climbing over 100 miles in 1 day) just by riding around N. Florida.
Down where you live, there's a "hilly" course at the "Vista View Park" (it's somewhere in southern Broward near Davie). You can use that for steep interval climbs.

Good luck! (btw, that sounds like an awesome trip)
