[pct-l] Sonora Pass to Sierra City permits (?)

[Deems]

I may have a good chance to hike this 180 mile section this summer over my 
2wk a year PCT adventure vacation. I know that each wilderness along this 
section has some very restrictive permit processes required to pass through 
each one: Desolation, Emigrant, Granite Chief, Carson-Iceberg, and Mokelumne 
Wilderness Areas. I would like to learn from those that have gone before how 
I can pass through each one with the least legal procedure problems as 
possible, while maintaining my preferred flexibility and legality on the 
days I enter and leave. I know from my hikes in 1988 in Desolation, that it 
had the most restrictive permit process along this section. I will not leave 
the trail enroute to get a new permit; I just want to have a simple 2 week 
hike with permits in hand, or attainable along the trail. I'd appreciate 
hearing from other hikers, either online or offline, on how to simplify 
getting the permits, or how to gracefully hike through this northern Sierra 
adventure I'm dreaming about now. Hikon!
