What are they gonna do if you throw out a bedroll and sleep if you draw tag I mean won’t be a camp just sleeping  I dunno seams like they should make some spots  for the tag holders is all

Are you asking two different branches of state government to do some reasonable coordination?????

That would make too much sense , but seriously what are they gonna do other than if someone asked back there ask you not to sleep over night I mean I’d  have to really weigh the options  in that scenario

My profile picture is in Mt. Whittier. I know a buddy who just camps off trail with a small setup and has never had any issues.  :dunno:

Probably don't have enough points for me to worry about this but I have been applying for the norway/ Mt. Whitter area for a few years now and was totally ignorant to the lack of availability of camping within the backcountry area. Thanks for the heads up.

It’s called dispersed camping completely legal.😉

I know that spot.  Snow wasn't all gone yet.  That's where I stopped and asked for the keys to the truck if my buddy was continuing.   :bdid:
