French to Everyone: so was the alternative trail feasible?

DICK: Since the most limiting camp (Marmot Lake) actually allowed 99+ registrations it was possible to book in early August for our late Aug trip. But that made me unwilling to go to Marmot for fear of crowding. 19:43:08 From Angela K. French to Everyone: what is generally the earliest this route is snow free? 19:43:19 From PEGGY NICOLAI to Everyone: I have a permit for Graves Creek to Enchanted Valley this summer; any suggestions? We will not make it all the way to Marmot Lake due to other permits after this one. 19:43:28 From SteveL to Everyone: Other access points to the loop are up the Duckabush or Dosewallips. All similarly long... 19:50:45 From Angela K. French to Everyone: what is the basis of the 99+? It's crazy 19:58:23 From Karin Landsberg to Everyone: Could you provide a little more info about the annual wilderness permit. 19:59:21 From Karin Landsberg to Everyone: Where do you purchase that? I’m not seeing it online.
