I figured as long as the new site had the nice easy table I'd pick a random 10 day stretch in June and see what % of each entry was already gone the first day. (as long as they let us keep these permits this time)
A couple minutes in Excel and here's the result, hopefully you can read the text from the screenshot in the picture. I sorted by % reserved and any EP that's not in the screenshot has had 0 permits reserved for that week so far. (lower on list)
If this doesn't work I'll see if I can get it in the text of a future post...
So far the highest on the list are Little Gabbro (80%), Mudro (78%), Moose (65%), and Lake One (64%)....no big surprises there I guess. This is also posted in Trip Planning

Here's a shot from a 10 day stretch at the end of May.
688 OP permits reserved in total after a little more than a day of being open.
Little Gabbro again the leader at 95% reserved of the possible total. Is that the most sought-after EP? Only 2 per day...
8 entries have yet to have any reservations after day 1.

Thanks for compiling and sharing, love data and spreadsheets, maybe why I am an engineer. I was also surprised Little Gabbro is highest for both sets of data while South Kawishiwi EP is only like a mile away and at 30% for the May data. Interesting! It would seem South Kawishiwi would also go high and people would portage to Little Gabbro if thats the key route.

Right, that is sort of odd.
I guess now I know what entries to look into for solitude! Still some with no permits reserved...

I've done exactly that, portaged to Little Gabbro then portaged back to S Kawishiwi. One of my favorite routes. I took it in May and didn't see a soul on South Kawishiwi.
We all have to believe in something. I believe I'll go paddle.
