You need a permit, it costs $6 to apply and if you win, it’s an additional $3… so a total of $9 and IT WAS SO WORTH IT! I do recommend getting the permit, it’s a lottery so you might not be lucky enough, but you should try! The views are much better than Scouts. It can be a tough hike, but it can be tough because of the amount of people.
This hike is “hard” because of the amount of people and you need to use chains to crawl up. It was an awesome hike and I do recommend!
