Whoa Joni!!! Those permits cost you ...$126!

If you cancel any, do it several weeks before, so others have a chance at reserving them and going.

So make the first trip or two training hikes -- just hike to Trail Camp, or maybe Trail Crest and head back. Doing that will get you into condition, give you an idea of how fast you hike, and familiarize yourself with the trail. Then when you finally do it, you will have a fantastic time!
