I have been looking at the climbing permits as well and i dont like the way it is set up either. Way to much big brother involved. I understand filling out some paperwork to let people know you are on the mountain but picking them up at Jack's buying them online and the 100 person quota needs to be inproved. I agree with setting the mountain up the way the rest are no 100 max if she is active close it like they did a few years ago but either shit or get off the pot. Im done ranting, I have a question about shoes for the climb up st helens. I know you dont need the koflach degre boots but I also what to know what you guys prefer when climbing the mountain. I am planning to climb in august and from what I have heard the snow will be gone hence no need for the degre boots. thanks
