JMT Logistics for Sept 4th

[Greg Mihalik]

I'm doing the JMT from Whitney to TM tentatively starting Wednesday Sept. 5th.

I'll be dropping a car at TM the morning of the 4th and need to get to Lone Pine for a permit.

I'll cover gas and dinner if anyone is going that direction and getting to Lone Pine around 2 pm.

Thanks.

I don't know what route you're planning on taking but in case you're not aware, it appears the Whitney main trail is closed September 4-7.

Added… Looks like you may be O.K. According to the last post in this thread, since you have a permit you may be able to get through with only some delays.

Jeff,

THANK YOU! for saving my butt.

I was planning on a walk-in permit.

Time to figure out the alternatives.

[Greg Mihalik]

Never mind.

I've decided on South to North, probably in over Shepard Pass.

[Greg Mihalik]

Back on track. Starting on Shepard. Permit is Reserved. Shuttle is Reserved.

Many thanks to Jeff for lots of information.

I'm still looking for a ride from TM to Lone Pine on Tuesday the 4th.
Or Late on the 3rd. It's a long drive from Colorado.
