What to pack

What October feels like

The gorge rim trail is at its best mid-month, and the wineries run harvest events on both sides of the river. This is also where the grey lid settles in for the season — the wet-day count jumps sharply from September and stays high right through winter.

Rain arrives about 8 days of the month, so keep one flexible day in your plans.
