Yes, the Remorhaz Queen's ranged attack range is limitless. So just go toe to toe with her as soon as you see her. She's not that tough IMHO, and with a bit of luck she'll do less damage in melee than she would from a distance.
And about those traps, they're plain Ice Dagger or Ice Lance spells (I forget which, but I'm fairly certain it's Ice Dagger), so just have a character who has either high cold resistance or high spell resistance open those doors, and you'll probably take no damage at all. Rogues or Monks with Improved Evasion work well too, if you somehow manage to get to a high enough level at that point.
