1) llilouette Falls - how far is it from Happy isles? (I plan to start @ Happy Isles, friend has permit for llilouette Falls. What would be our best option to meetup on the trail and start together?
2) VVR and MTR, I plan to re-supply there, without mailing myself anything. Dooes VVR and MTR sell enough supplies to last me the rest of the trip? Do they sell mountain house meals, nuts, trail mixes, etc?
3) Through-pass. If I wait in line nice and early - do I get it for the same day or next day hike?
4) Does the permit include Half-dome? I'd like to make that stop. If it doesnt, whats the best way to get additional half-dome permit?
