I used the website last year to get permits for the Desolation Wilderness out of Tahoe. The only problem I encountered was that I was unfamiliar with the trailheads and the maps didn't clearly show where they might be.
Otherwise, access, availability, dates of entry/exit, etc. were all easy to figure out. I'm looking forward to using it for the lottery. Although if I never get to go into the Wilderness offices again, that would be sad. Good people in there.
Wait: I usually grab walk-in permits anyway. Never mind.
