Anyone have any beta on past years, early October (first week), weather conditions? I have looked at previous high and lows however would like some first hand accounts. Thanks

It is possible to have blizzards in October, so getting out earlier in the month might be better than later. Last year we had a really good climbing weather all the way through October. With the Godzilla El Nino this year things could be different.

Niño shouldn't be much of an issue:
