The permit you lost the lottery for is about to open up.
People cancel Enchantments cores, Half Dome slots, and Many Glacier sites every single day — quietly, with no announcement. PermitDrops polls recreation.gov around the clock, shows you live availability for 17 of the hardest-to-get permits & campgrounds in America, and pings you the moment your dates open.

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.
15 seconds of it working
