These days you have to figure out ALL yer hikes by mid march and have dates planned!!! Can't just wait till summer and take off on fridays unplanned. It really caters to this crowd of older weekend warrior types who buy nalgenes with the straws built in!!!! Those dumb ones you have to suck like a baby bottle!
BB, I agree--and part of me is ashamed I even bother playing the game. Truth is, more often than not I don't bother with the permit thing. I deliberately don't in NCNP--the least-used national park in the lower 48. But in this instance, I'm traveling with someone who can't afford a "trespass" strike on their clearance rating. And it's hard to outrun a bureaucrat's radio.

Only true if you want to go to one of the quota areas, but anywhere else in the park they have unlimited walk-ups, so take any Friday off if you are heading to Enchanted Valley, Bailey Range, Muncaster Basin, Dose Meadows, Anderson Pass, Cedar lake, Dodger point, Home Sweet home, Lake of the Angles etc etc etc...but not Royal Basin, 7 lakes, Lena Lake, Glacier Meadow.
Since I have no expectations of forgiveness, I don't do it in the first place. That loop hole needs to be closed to everyone.
