Half Dome Permits - 2012 Lottery Application Statistics
This chart shows Half Dome lottery applications by day of the week submitted as of March 29, 2012. The chart to the right shows the distribution of the Half Dome lottery permit requests by day of the week submitted as of March 28, 2012. The bar graphs below show how many permits have been requested for each date during the Half Dome season as of March 28, 2012. Unlike before, this graph now shows actual number of permits requested for each day (300 permits are available each day). This graph shows the worst-case scenario for each day because each application will have only one of its permit dates filled (applications can have up to seven different dates requested). Both of these graphs are to give you a snapshot as to how this new permit system is being used. This will help to give you an idea of what dates are more popular than others, and what days of the week are most popular.
