While in the Kings Canyon last summer, I had the pleasure to meet one of the 
head back country rangers. She told us that they are haveing quite a few 
people every year, hiking the John Muir Trail, as well as other trailheads 
in the area, trying to play it off like they were useing the 500 mile+ PCT 
thru-hike permit. Not only are they aware of the permit, they are also 
frowning down on its misuses. I think there will be changes in the future, 
because of these misuses. It would be a shame for the thru-hike permit to be 
a thing of the past, because of a bunch of section hikers misuseing it.
