Silver Star / Grouse Vist page

Post by robertjoy » March 5th, 2015, 2:05 pm

It would be nice if the Silver Star via Grouse Vista TH page were updated.
Also the same comments would clarify the situation on the Grouse Vista TH page.

FEES: Discover Pass required. Not available at trail head. Purchase online at 1-866-320-9933.
(display Permit Number which Ranger can verify)

I haven't bought a Discover Pass, so I just want to clarify - do you mean purchase by phone at that phone number? And then you write the permit # on a piece of paper or something and stick it on your dash until you receive the actual permit in the mail?

Sounds unlikely. Especially given they're tied to a specific license plate.

Digging a little... Ah... http://discoverpass.wa.gov/faq.aspx

Your pass should arrive within 7 to 10 business days. You may print a temporary 10-day pass at the time of purchase from the website or by your e-mail.
Maybe call that number, and ask directly?

Back on the trail, again...

That's EXACTLY how it worked when I bought a day pass via phone at the Columbia Hills trailhead a couple years ago: I was told to write a number on a piece of paper and put it on my dashboard.

I updated the Grouse Vista permit info in the FG to make this more clear.
