If you provide an eligible email address, you will receive an email within 1-2 business days stating whether your request was confirmed or denied.
*In order to receive a permit with Donohue Pass as your exit point from Yosemite, you [http://www.nps.gov/yose/planyourvisit/jmtfaq.htm MUST start at] Lyell Canyon, Happy Isles to Little Yosemite Valley, Happy Isles pass-through, Glacier Point to Little Yosemite Valley, or Sunrise Lakes. Other entrance trailheads will not be approved.
*First night camp tip: "Either so long as it indicates somehow that you are past where the arrowhead is (if there is one). If in doubt, say Beyond ___. They just want to know that you know where you CAN camp. For example, Cathedral Lakes: Beyond Cathedral Lakes. For Lyell, I would say Beyond JMT/Ireland Lake trail junction. Mono Meadows: Mt Starr King Area should suffice (since the intersecting trails don't have names on the map). I try to find an easily identifiable place beyond where the arrowhead is, even if I am not really planning on staying there. As long as your actual first night stay follows the rules, you are fine. No one will compare the two. Also, if one of your options has a Dot instead of an Arrowhead, they want you to stay where the dot is."
**Lyell start tip "On your first request, I would verify how far up Lyell Canyon. For example, "beyond Vogelsang/Ireland Lake Trail junction...so they know you know you can only camp beyond 4 trail miles from TM. http://www.nps.gov/yose/planyourvisit/wildregs.htm"
