Happy New Year. 

Looking at doing my first "trekking" peak in 2020 and will probably do Mera Peak. There is a choice of dates each year and they fall in the April/May time frame (eg 11 Apr-04 May) or the Oct time frame (eg 11 Oct-03 Nov). I was wondering what the advantages and disadvantages of each dates are. I appreciate there are no guarantees with the weather but keen to hear peoples thoughts around this choice. The Apr/May dates would fit better for time off work but this would not be the main factor in choosing. Thanks for any guidance

Go in October.  It's after monsoon so air is clear and the weather is more stable than in April.

That was easy. Thanks for taking the time to respond. I will expect nothing less than blue skies...
