We usually pack our backpacks and head to Summer Lake Hot Springs the first part of October...yes its cold but we have a great tent to sleep in, great sleeping bags, and the proper clothes to wear when were hiking across the desert don't forget a good wind resistant coat because the wind can blow out there and there is nothing to break it...also keep in mind its called Summer Lake Hot Springs for a reason...so come on in the water is fine.
Layering out here is optimal the day can start off chilly, and snowy in October but by mid day you're down to jeans and a base layer, and by night fall your bundled back up to hang out by the fire. Going late in the year has is bonuses...lack of other people...stars so close at night you can almost touch them...(and if lucky shooting stars)...coyotes serenade you...and as much time in the Hot Springs as you can handle...not a bad deal.
