Pricing
The guides and the pack builder are free and stay free. The one paid thing is the one that costs us money to run: watching Recreation.gov around the clock for your permit. You can buy it sized for a year or for a single trip. No fake countdowns and no invented scarcity: membership itself is never capacity-limited. Where a real cap exists, our payment processor enforces it, not this page.
Free: live now
- The permit guides: every fact source-verified, re-checked each season.
- The pack builder: gear closet, packs by category, running weight totals, manufacturer-verified weights per variant.
- Read-only pack sharing: send a link, no account needed on the other end.
BDH Pro
$29 first year
Renews at $49/year, plus any applicable sales tax. The first 10 members get the founding rate, applied automatically at checkout. Everything below applies to founding members unchanged.
- Permit monitoring: we watch Recreation.gov for your permit and your dates.
- Alerts by email, text, and push the moment a spot returns. You book it yourself on Recreation.gov, first in line instead of ten minutes late.
- Watch every permit in the catalog. One annual plan covers your whole account.
- Only on permits where monitoring genuinely works. Here's what that means.
What you're agreeing to
- It renews automatically each year at $49/year, until you cancel. We email you before every renewal.
- Cancel any time from Settings, in a couple of clicks. No phone call, no retention maze. You keep Pro through the period you already paid for.
- Money back. Full refund within 14 days on the annual plan. And if we never find you a single opening, we refund the year. Read the refund policy.
- We never book for you. We tell you the moment a spot exists; you grab it on Recreation.gov. Nobody can promise you a permit, and we don't.
Single-permit pass
$15 one-time, plus any applicable sales tax. One permit, through the end of its season when we have that date verified, otherwise six months from purchase; the exact date shows before you pay. Text alerts included. Non-refundable, but if something went wrong on our end, contact us and we'll make it right. If it never alerts you before it ends, $15 back or a free re-watch.
No renewal, nothing to cancel. Pick the permit in the app and choose the pass at checkout. Already on the annual plan? It covers every permit, so there is nothing to add.
