How it works
- We poll politely, around the clock. Every tracked permit and campground is re-checked all day, every day, straight from recreation.gov's public availability data.
- We diff every date. When "0 remaining" becomes "1 remaining" — someone cancelled — we record it. That's the feed above, and it's what alerts are built on.
- You book it on recreation.gov. We link you straight to the booking page. We never book for you, hold inventory, or run bots against the checkout — that's the line we don't cross.
17 seconds of it working
Recorded against the live site: the board, a sold-out permit calendar, a watch order, and the real openings feed.
