Recreation.Gov
Who are the morons that just flat out ruined a good reservation site? The maps look like something a child drew...

I agree the new website is horrible. I've been in IT since before IT was called IT. I would bet with a high degree of confidence that the website development was off-shored.
My old account information could not be verified after the new deployment - even though it recognized my old username. It insisted that my driver's license number could not validate the account, but was happy enough to use my passport information. Suspicion level ramped up another level on personal information harvesting from yet another intrusive source.
i apologize for misinformation in my above post. The issue I described was with ReserveAmerica.com, not recreation.gov. I was wrong.
I just checked my recreation.gov account, and, while yes, they did make me generate a new password, my account and information was intact. There was no additional confirmation of identity with drivers license number or passport number as there was with ReserveAmerica.com.
My apology for the inaccurate memory and information, and undeserved criticism.
ReserveAmerica has never asked for my drivers license or passport info when making a reservation. They do ask for my vehicle and license plate info a week out for the voluntary pre-registration though.
