In November it could be relatively snow free or 2-3 feet. Most likely will be icy, that stretch on Wildcat Dave mentioned can be quite tricky if icy.

Unless some odd weather, you will need at least stabiliciers (these likely over matched on Wildcat in poor conditions) in good conditions & likely crampons. (I'd bring crampons)

Snowshoes in the car (you can rent these) & make that a trailhead condition. I'd probably want a bag rating of 5 degrees to be safe or even colder. Whether that was a 20 degree bag & a fleece liner or an overbag OR both, that wouldn't matter. Can rent winter bags also,
