Everest Expeditions in Autumn

Are there any reputable expeditions on Everest in the Autumn? A search on the internet gave me some really spotty information, mostly about expeditions that already happened or on websites that appeared to be out of date or factually incorrect. The 8000m only expeditions I see in Autumn are summitclimb's Cho Oyu expedition.

It looks like I'll have a window of time to do it before B-school this Fall (Starting in January). Not sure when ...

Zugspitze - Day trip from Munich?

I'm going to be in Munich for a few days next week and was wondering how feasible it is to hike up Zugspitze and back in a day trip from Munich using public transit?

I won't be bringing any climbing gear with me so I'm planning this just as a hike. Do the current snow conditions allow for it to be done with only hiking boots and sturdy lungs? I appreciate any thoughts folks might ...

Vignemale ascent - glacier

Hi,
Am planning a trip to the Pyrenees in mid/late July (11th-26th) staying in the Cauterets/Gavarnie area (accommodation not sorted yet so can be flexible on this right now, but have booked Eurostar/TGV to Lourdes so that's where I'd be heading into the mountains from). It will be myself and probably a friend.

I'd like to climb some of the 3000m+ summits in the area - am happy to do scrambling up to Grade III ...

Where to base in Spain for 2 months in winter?

I want to live in Spain for 2 months later this year. Probably some time between Oct and Feb 2014. Anybody know which town or city would make a good base. I'd be interested in cragging and mountaineering, keeping in mind the season. I like rock and glaciers/snow. My significant other is looking for a flamenco school so Andalusia may be ideal. From Cadiz to Barcelona, what places offer convenience and adventure?
