Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion 2013 Whitney Lottery Information

Someone messed up the software this year so no alternate leader name could be entered. I am thinking you may need to call the wilderness permit office and ask about that if you actually get a permit.

As for a party splitting up, I think it would be wise for each member to carry a copy of the permit, or at least write down the permit number on something to carry.

This year, you won't be charged until you actually accept your permit. Soon after the lottery is run, emails will be sent to all the participants.

Edit: After seeing the post below, I guess things are still ok with alternate leader. I was recalling the testing web site that Inyo was running in January before the actual lottery began.
