Autumn is here-described so beautifully by the English poet John Keats as the 'Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness'. The nights will soon be longer than the days and the temperature is dropping back steadily, so it's a good time to replace your summer gear for the warmer stuff. Wear extra layers and keep a spare in the rucksack, make sure you have a hat and pair of warm gloves (and a spare pair) with you, check your boots for grip and if your waterproof layer isn't what it should be, re-proof it. When out on the hills or on longer walks bring a warm drink and plenty of snacks.
See below a link to an old article. The title says it all.
