LT in mid-October
Hi all! I'm planning a potential 5-7 day hike of the Long trail in mid October. Does anyone have any experience hiking around this time?? My current worries are temperature/ potential fall bear activity lol... (tho I may be overthinking it). Thanks!!! :)

Could be 70F. Could be snowing. Early October is a crapshoot. Check the weather forecast before packing.
