How drop windows work
Each reservation system releases availability exactly N months/days before the campsite date. For example, Recreation.gov releases sites 180 days in advance at 4:00 PM ET. On that day, Kestrel switches to 2-minute scans so you're alerted the moment inventory appears — often within seconds of the drop.
