Can it be left overnight, for instance, for a long distance hike

Hogsback near Whitney? Yes is the answer for almost all trailheads in the Sierra.

Maybe I should have said the barret-stoddard area

34°13'21.34"N 117°40'3.50"W

AFAIK, you can park there as long as you like. I would display an Adventure Pass if you have one. The Adventure Pass requirement is somewhat murky now after a court ruling.

Wow!

Care to elaborate?

How risky is it NOT to have a pass, exactly?

I am not a lawyer, but here is the LA Times article on it.

I've read interpretations that as long you don't use facilities like bathrooms, picnic tables, etc, you don't need a pass. I still display mine whenever there is any doubt.

There is no murk...

If you're just hiking no parking permit is required.

I'd be more concerned my vehicle would be burglarized or have parts stolen than and thing else

What about if you left it overnight? still fine?

The parking lot for Barrett-Stoddard off Baldy Road isn't real safe. Lotta window breaking and thing-stealing goes on there. I'll never park there again.
