  • Wilderness Permit System Implementation Frequently Asked Que Stions
    WILDERNESS PERMIT SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION FREQUENTLY ASKED QUE STIONS When are permits required? The Deschutes and Willamette NFs are implementing a wilderness permit system for the Mt. Jefferson, Mt Washington and Three Sisters wildernesses this year. In 2020 the season for wilderness permits will begin on May 22nd and end on September 25th. Every year the season will be from the Friday prior to Memorial Day to the last Friday in September. How do people get permits? All reservations for a limited entry permit need to be made through Recreation.gov either on-line, by calling, or by doing the reservation at one of the Willamette and Deschutes National Forests’ offices. We want to encourage people to take advantage of getting permits online – “go on-line, don’t stand in line.” Reservations for limited entry permits will open on Tuesday, April 7th at 7:00 a.m. Every year permit reservations will be available beginning the first Tuesday in April. There is a $1.00 processing charge for day-use permits per individual and a $6.00 processing charge for overnight-use permits per group. An overnight group can be from 1 to 12 people. The processing charge funds the operation of the reservation system, like processing charges for tickets through Ticketmaster or other reservation systems. Other than the processing fee, there are no other additional costs/fees associated with the limited entry permit. However, people should be aware that if a NW Forest Pass or day use permit is required at a trailhead, the wilderness permit does not cover that requirement.
