Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion Day hike parking lot questions

I would also like to know for the day hikers, how the parking lot situation was when getting to the portal. I will be doing the day hike in September and just curious what the availability of spaces will be like around 3-4am at the portal.

From my previous experiences, there was always a spot available somewhere at the trailhead when we arrived around 3am. Wondering how the construction is affecting this.

Thanks everyone
