cal_BQ -- I'm so bummed for you to be missing your trip to the beautiful Whitney zone. I hope you get to sometime really soon instead. So please accept my most deep and heartfelt sympathies.
I hope it would not be deemed insensitive for me to ask about that campsite...
Campsite 43 by all descriptions seems to be paved and shaded with a double wide driveway. It seems a shame to let it go to waste. I actually only need it for Friday night for myself and possibly a few others who may be lured out of the motel by the promise of the falling asleep to the sound of mountain stream and the smell of pine needles. I was planning to try for the walk in campsites and hope for some luck. I wonder if you could prehaps let me know right after you cancel it? That might allow me to then book it. Or, is it transferrable in some way?
