Dates aren't set here for a lottery — you pick them when you enter.
National-park campgrounds are watched at the campground level (all sites). First-come / walk-up sites aren't tracked. We alert when a reservable site opens.
This permit is booked by entry date, not a stay — there's no check-out. Pick when you start, and your permit covers your whole trip. Narrow the watch to a specific trailhead or zone in Advanced options below if you only care about one. Walk-up / in-station-only entries aren't tracked. We alert the moment a reservable slot opens, so grab it fast. Even lottery-sold-out permits like Mt. Whitney reopen as cancellations once the lottery closes. Lottery-only permits like Half Dome don't have a bookable phase, so we remind you to enter instead.
This watches for cancellations — it doesn't enter you in the lottery. Applications usually run Feb–Mar on recreation.gov.
This permit runs on a lottery, so there's no availability to watch. We email you as each key date lands: when the application opens, when it closes, and when results post. You enter, the lottery picks. We just make sure you never miss the window.
Pick the hike date(s) you want — we'll remind you to enter each day's lottery ~2 days before it closes.
Cancelled and unclaimed permits get re-released for booking. They go fast.
This loop watches a fixed, curated set of sites — no need to add your own. We'll alert you when any of them opens.
