California has a new reservation system Now is to the date You have to wait till 8 o’clock for the calendar to change so if you are already on the website you have to keep refreshing your iPad or computer My problem is when 8 o’clock comes I refresh right away it takes a few seconds but by the time it takes me to the page where the campground sites are the site I want is already gone How can those people get the site faster than me . Are there any tricks I don’t know off ! Please help

    Please provide feedback to them on things like this. The system is new and the developers really didn't understand how people select campsites when they built it. It's a frustrating system even for folks who work for parks.

    I think you can go to the screen that lists the campgrounds in the park unit and refresh that page without getting kicked backwards. But at the moment it's telling me the entire site is down.

    Multiple tabs help also to a point.

    Many use multiple computers and quick fingers. Primo sites in California Parks system require a lot of luck to secure.
