two words. la nina.

 

translates to high prob of rain this fall/winter so there is a low prob of doing anything other than standing around wearing goretex unless you are a ubber hardperson suffer madman.

 

with good weather, it is probably fine shape given the summer (or lack thereof) we had.

Late season snow storms (like Rainier is probably experiencing right now) can actually bring the route into good condition - making bare ice into nice neve, so long as you get a good stretch of weather for the ascent. But Gene is right, looks like what little summer we had is over - no Native American summer for us this year.
