Thanks Steve!!!
I knew there was a chart like this somewhere; I've used it in the past but I couldn't find it.
I think you're right... I'm gonna just relax about it and go for the walk-in permits.

Hard for me... I'm kinda one of those people that likes to have everything planned out!
I went back a few years on the "Unused Whitney Permits" chart, and the number of unused tickets for the month of October looks really promising. Now, if the weather will just co-operate....
Thanks again!
