Starting JMT at Bubb's Creek TH?
|
I am thinking of doing the JMT in July 2022. I don't care too much about walking every mile of the trail and so for ease of permitting I was thinking of starting at Bubb's Creek Trailhead in Sequoia-Kings Canyon. It's about 12 miles from the trailhead to the JMT. I'd then head north.?
My question and forgive me if the answer is obvious and I should have figured out on my own: Can one simply start the JMT wherever they wish if they can get a permit? I understand why it's so difficult to get permits at the northern and southern ends, but I wonder if Bubb's Creek is easier? Once I get that permit can I just head east and then north with no further worries about permits?
Thanks and please let me know if my question is not clear.
