To receive a regular permit for the Grand Canyon the wait is about 16 years. You can apply to receive a cancelled permit at anytime. However, if you are on the wait list for a permit you have preference over someone who is not on the wait list. The longer on a wait list the better preference you have for a cancelled permit. Once you take a permit your name is removed from the wait list. If you want to do the Grand Canyon put your name on the list now, you will have years to decide before a permit comes up. > One question. You mention that Jamie applied 6 years ago for the Grand > Canyon permit, and that the trip is this year. I thought the waiting > list was about 20 years...... how are you able to get it in only > 6??????? *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
