The Mt Jefferson Wilderness has experienced fire in the past few years, as well as increasing pressure from visitors. You'll need an overnight permit to camp in Jefferson Park, even if you have a PCT permit. Several of the trailheads into this area are still closed from fire damage, so be sure to check out the information from the US Forest Service before heading to this beautiful place.
