标 题: Yosemite Change on Half Dome Permit

Updated July 14, 2011
Initial hiker counts for this season indicate that there are numerous no
shows among Half Dome permit holders. In an effort to make up for these no
shows, the National Park Service (NPS) will manually release additional Half
Dome permits each day, at 7 am PDT on the day before the permit date. For
instance, at 7 am on Friday, additional permits will become available online
(recommended) and through the call center at Recreation.gov for use on
Saturday. This will continue throughout the summer until further notice.
NPS will initially release an additional 50 Half Dome permits each day and
then adjust these numbers, either up or down, throughout the season based
upon ongoing hiker counts.These additional permits will have $1.50
processing fee and be limited to purchases of four at a time. Unlike the
earlier Half Dome permits, these are non transferable. To counter the
illegal resale of Half Dome permits, the group leader, whose name is
recorded at the time of transaction, must accompany his or her group on
their Half Dome hike. Once the permit transaction is completed, the group
leader’s name cannot be changed.
The day-before-release method was chosen to counter both illegal resale of
permits and speculative buying by the general public. While purchasing a
permit the day before does not allow as much advance notice as many people
may wish, it should put permits in the hands of hikers who will use them.
While permits are not available in the park or on a first-come, first-served
basis, canceled permits may be available until midnight the evening before
the hiking day through Recreation.gov. If you have a permit that you won't
use, please cancel it so others may use it. (You may cancel your permit as
late as midnight the evening before the hiking day.)
If you are unable to hike Half Dome for any reason (including weather,
cables not available, illness, etc.) on the day you have a permit, we will
not be able to provide a permit for a different date. | J********i
