I need to get "wilderness permits" to do an overnight Half Dome hike for seven people. Ive been trying the Yosemite NPS Ctr. for a month now and they dont respond to mail, internet sight is all booked up and they take the phone off the hook from 8:30 am on the nose and leave it off the hook till 4:00 pm which apparently is thier hours of operation. Then you get a recorded message which tells you to go online (read em and weep) or send a request by mail (Santa will write you back first) At this point I am very desperate. This trip is not an ordaniary family outing. A month ago my younger brother was diagnosed with lumps in his stomach that may be cancer. Yesterday he went in for a biopsy and we will not get the results for two weeks. I want to use this trip to get our minds off of waiting for the results. He is in good spirits right now which is more than I can say for myself and my other family members. He is in good enough shape to make the hike and already has his heart set on it I dont want to let him down. My family is coming together from all over the US and one of my sisters has even requested leave from the military to make this trip. I am so desprate to talk to someone who can give me answers I am unable to sleep through the night. Sombody Please Help Me..........
