For those who plan to hike Half Dome in Yosemite National Park, the pre-season lottery for tickets has been delayed.
According to National Parks Traveler:
The 2019 preseason lottery for Half Dome permits at Yosemite National Park will be delayed for an unknown amount of time this year due to a transition to a new contracted provider.
The lottery typically opens March 1. You can track developments with this matter at this website.
All hikers are required to have permits to ascend the subdome steps and the Half Dome cables seven days a week when the cables are up. Park rangers install the cables each spring and take them down each fall, based on weather and trail conditions. The cables are typically up from late May to early October.
