Tickets and timed-entry inventory on Recreation.gov follows the same physics as campgrounds: a listing-defined release pattern, carts that hold for about fifteen minutes, and sold-out dates that return when plans change — because every ticket in this system can be cancelled, and cancelled inventory comes straight back to the calendar, first-come. The listing text above is the authority for this facility's exact window; our release- windows guide shows how to read any listing's pattern, and how cancellations work explains why "sold out" is a snapshot rather than a verdict.
On Recreation.gov, via the official listing linked in the facts table. itOpened never takes bookings — we publish the data and watch the calendars.
Timed-entry and ticket inventory recycles: abandoned carts return after about fifteen minutes, and cancellations return dates first-come, all season. Re-check at release times and in the final days before your date.
