[pct-l] october oregon pct hiking

[Austin Williams]

I would actually caution you against it.  I live in Portland and the weather
can get pretty nasty around here starting in October.  You'll be very wet
(it rains a LOT in October), and you'd be chancing serious snowstorms at
higher elevation.

I don't want to be too alarmist, so be sure to factor in others' opinions
too.  But I wouldn't make a push for the Canadian Border from Cascade locks
starting in October... and I'm a guy with an above-average tolerance for
risk.

Whatever you decide, be safe!
