I won the whitney lotto!
i even got my first choice.
Unfortunately, a day after i entered the lotto, i decided i'd rather go from cottonwood exiting whitney. And I obtained that permit.
so they get to keep my lotto entry money, and i'll be declining this win as i'm hiking whitney via cottonwood which is a different permit.
I think its good that rather than doing a one day death march, i'll be taking my time, though i'll be hiking a further, and carrying a much heavier pack.
