Mt. Whitney Portal Store & Hostel Forums General Mt. Whitney Portal Store Message Board Permits for Langley

Does anyone know what kind of permits would be needed for a mid October Backpacking trip to Langley?

An overnight permit. I suspect you would backpack into the cottonwood lakes area. You can download the permit at Inyo national forest site - other trails and fax it it.

Thanks 66inchesTall. Do you have the site where the permits are?

Go to the Inyo NF website and download an appplication and fax it to them with your credit card # or just come up in October there should be plenty of permits available for walk-ins, they hold back 40% of all permits, save the Main Mt. Whitney Trail.
