YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK 2010 HIGH SIERRA CAMP APPLICATIONS NOW ONLINE
Press Release
September 8, 2009
Technology will afford prospective guests of Yosemite’s High Sierra Camps the opportunity to apply for the annual lodging lottery on the Internet for the upcoming 2010 season. Beginning September 1, applications are now available online for submission and will be accepted through November 1, 2009.
“We’re pleased to make this announcement, primarily because it will make the application process easier and more expedient for our guests,” said Dan Jensen, chief operating officer for concessioner DNC Parks & Resorts at Yosemite, Inc. “For decades, the only way to enter the High Sierra Camp lottery was to submit a hard-copy application to our Fresno reservations office and wait for three months. Those days are over.”
Applicants submitting by the November 1 deadline will receive notification 30 to 60 days faster than in previous years. The simplified electronic medium will allow DNC’s central reservation office to process applications quicker, and return confirmations more rapidly than before.
Any canceled space will be filled by a second round lottery using applications which were not awarded during the first round. Any available space not awarded during those first two rounds will be filled by phone inquiries on a first come, first served basis beginning February 9, 2010, nearly two full months earlier than this year’s April 1 date.
