Into Permit Confusion


 


Hi all -
?
I am attempting a permit entering at Red’s SOBO, exiting/summiting Mount Whitney this August.?

I am prepping for the permit process, which by the way is more daunting than the hike itself, and I’m thoroughly confused by the system.
?
From what I can tell, they release permits six months in advance, but for John Muir Trail exiting Whitney they are completely blanked out with zeros all year long including on the date that new permits are being released. (I’ve checked a few times)
?
Does anyone have experience with this particular permit? Do I need to start by entering Whitney lottery instead??

Thanks in advance…
