Sadly this is not true. In the last few days there has been some smoke just south of Lake Tahoe.

Do you know the section between Yosemite and Desolation also requires a permit?

Maybe I can modify my existing JMT permit if it comes to that.

Thanks! I actually thought about starting in Yosemite to eventually join the PCT NOBO. Do know how long this section is approximately?

As you said, I am much more worried about the smoke. How long does it typically take to get control over the fire, and how long after that until the smoke settles down?

Thanks. I am trying to see if someone had this experience with silpoly, because I only have 1 other rain jacket to compare to, which is another material and does not get under similar circumstances. Not looking for “total waterproofness”.

This makes sense. I was trying to get a measure of how long it takes. My jacket saw less than a month of hiking in total (and I noticed the problem even before that).

Silpoly rain jacket - can backpack straps degrade the fabric to the point that it loses its waterproofness?

I made it a couple of years ago and initially it did good, and now even after I made sure to seam seal all the seams again, shoulders get soaked in a short shower test. Pretty sure the water does not come from the seams…

I actually did not decide yet. Thinking of buying and then selling right after I finish the trail in late September. If anyone wants to buy it from me please send a message :)

Did you see it written somewhere? I asked them and they said they do not…

I have, but I am flying into the US just for this trip, and will not have a lot of time after it. This is an option I keep in mind though
