Thank you!
I have only done JMT Nobo all 3 times. Because I didn¡¯t wanted to deal with then mostly free lottery.
Now this year I COULD NOT get Cottonwood Pass.
Lakes yes, but I do know what it could mean over NAP. So didn't get lakes.
I was ready for permit drop logged and all - it was insane the error that was created on Recreation- ¡°error too many have the item in their carts¡±
It never happened before- I think it is largely due to the fact that going South is no longer ¡°Golden¡± due to $, Tuolumne restoration etc etc and more people know about it not realizing that you really need to acclimate and not everyone would be fit to hit Whitney day 3.
I always have a blast in our more private group mail here vs FB.
Thank you!
