The big issue is that congress has to designate funding. The president can ask for all the money the parks need but congress tends to shoot it down. The National Park Service has been underfunded for decades as a result.

I suspect that part of the problem is some politicians and business interests out west are concerned that if more people went to the multi-use areas of the parks and saw activities like logging or mining, laws might be passed to restrict such activities.

I have always thought that instead of clear cutting, the government should subsidize selective tree culling. That would certainly help with the whole Wildfire issue. I don't mind my taxes going towards paying companies to do something that will help everyone since we all pay for homes, businesses and other losses due to wildfires.

Those of us who use Reserve CA to camp at SoCal beaches know that you have to operate at nanosecond speed starting at 7:59:59 to snag a cancellation.
Yes—that’s not a problem. Reserve California releases a batch of recently canceled spots at 8AM, however, there are others that are released at all times throughout the day. That said, you have to act quickly, as we’re seeing spots get rebooked very quickly this year.

I had actually written myself a program that does the same thing... it would send me a text if a spot opened up.


I happen to live in Florida and about a 2 hour drive away from places like Topsail state park which are difficult to get a spot for.


Given that I could grab a spot a day in advance and that I'm also an hour to 3 hours away depending on the park it works. If you were in Wisconsin trying to stay in Florida it would be difficult to make plans around randomly open slots.
