Not sure if it will be a 14 day quarantine type of thing but it seems like the Ely station had a potential COVID19 exposure and are following the FS rules/guidelines.

Sounds like calls to the station are being transferred to a couple FS personnel cell phones.

" Still closed?

Yes, they will still be a virtual station. You can still get instructions while outside as to how to update your permit (# people & fees) and have your copy on your phone. Not sure how it works if you need a part of the permit for other canoes in your group, but might say on your confirmation when you reserve your own & have it "sent" as an issuing station to any of the virtual Ranger Stations.

Or see if you can send it to a business that can issue them. You will need to know all your log in info if you show up and want it issued and haven't changed it ahead of time.
