Hi guys,
I've stayed in the backpacker campgrounds at the Portal for my last 3 October attempts at Whitney. I am planning to make a trip to the portal in the Winter (probably won't go any further) and would like to stay there again. I understand that a road walk may be required to do this.
Is camping at the portal allowed in the winter? Are the backpacker campsites open in winter? I believe the fee was $15 or so. Are there any INYO permits required for camping there?
Thanks,
