Hoover Wilderness Passes

Every Hoover Wilderness wilderness-permit entry point on recreation.gov - AllTrails ratings, demand scores, and a trailhead map.

The Hoover Wilderness sits along the Sierra Nevada crest on the eastern edge of Yosemite, in the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, with alpine lakes and passes reached from the Twin Lakes, Green Creek, Virginia Lakes, and Leavitt Meadows trailheads. A Hoover wilderness permit is required for overnight backcountry trips, and during the summer quota season the most popular trailheads can sell out.
