[pct-l] Fwd: Oregon Section Permit

[Michael Irving]

The only permit that might be beneficial to get in advance is if you wanted to camp overnight in the Obsidian area at the 3 Sisters as this is limited in number. So if you didn't have a thru-hike permit you'd just need to make sure you didn't camp inside this area which is not an exceptionally long area to get through so easily avoided. You'd have to pick the exact night too which might be difficult to predict.

>> The only permits you need for Oregon can generally be obtained at the entrance to the specific wilderness areas.  I found them to be in a box along the trail.  Just grab one, fill it out and attach to your pack.  And you might grab a spare in case the box is empty when you pass by.  The exception is Crater Lake, which is a National Park.  I stayed there with my wife in the Mazama Village and did not need any kind of permit.
