Considering last minute SOLO plans to blow out top half of LT mid November 2007 (LT Inn to Canada) [leaving the end of this week!]

Only have 6 maybe 7 full days, so would be big days, hiking in dark,etc.

Had a blast thru hikin the AT this spring, so I'm proven for aggressive pace, aware upper part of LT is much harder, etc.; Last year earlier in fall I attempted same and managed only the first 85 miles in 5 days with much heavier gear and far less experience (as a prep hike for my AT attempt). Ran outta time. Avereraged 16.5/day I think. Honestly, this would be my most aggressive attempt, longer miles. If it were spring I wouldn't even be posting the question-I'd be doing it for sure.

Have plenty of light warm gear, so I'm ok with all that. Aware almost nobody else out there.

Just wondering what conditions I might expect. Mud? Ice on peaks? Trail Flooding? Snow?

Need crampons? or just walk carefully on spots of ice?

I'm assuming too early to need snowshoes, any snow would be minimal.

I like a challenge, just don't wanna be stupid/uninformed.

Thoughts?????
