Hey everyone
My husband is in the military and his schedule is so unpredictable that it was impossible to plan a trip using the lottery.
He's away for work and gets back on July 22nd and then leaves for 6 months on August 10. We really want to hike Mount Whitney before he leaves, but I'm hesitant to arrange child care for our daughter and drive all the way there from San Diego and not be able to hike...
Do you experienced hikers feel the odds would be good for us to get a permit if we took the plunge? I'm hoping to hike on 8/4. Thank you!
