Hey All,
The John Muir Trail is amazing in early October, see video: John Muir Trail Video
Permits for Mt. Whitney and the JMT are easy to get now. Let me know if you have any questions.
This is a summary of an October thru-hike on the John Muir Trail. I traveled seven days on foot from Whitney Portal to Yosemite and stuffed my camera with as much beauty as I could. Evening temperatures were below freezing each night and signs of winter were ever-present. I hope you enjoy the pictures and the story.

Thank you for posting this.
P.S. I'm glad you were able to get nearly to the end before the worst of the storm hit!
