July 26, 2005, Camp sites in Muir Snowfield Area??

There's talk of an overnighter this Saturday on the Muir Snowfield....<br><br>I'm guessing that permits for Camp Muir will have been snapped up by the time we get to Longmire Saturday morning.<br><br>If that's the case, is anyone willing to share alternate sites that would be conducive to yo-yo skiing higher up on the snowfield?... Any permit tips are also appreciated.<br><br>Also, is anyone else interested in joining in?<br><br>

Interesting question regarding permits. I've camped up there, usually near anvil rock or near top of Nisqually Chute, for the yo yo purpose. I don't know if anyone noticed or if it mattered; I never had any permits. Hmmm....I'm a low impact/pack it in pack it out camper so I don't feel guilty, but I'd like to play by the rules if they exist.

You could get a permit for the Paradise Glacier and camp on the edge of the glacier close to the Muir Snowfield. They only allow two parties to camp in that area, I believe.
