Yellowstone Backcountry Lottery 2026

[Jackson]

How did everyone's lottery submissions go? I got one for the first time in a couple of years, and the other people I know who put in did not get a date.

Congrats! The emails must've just recently gone out. I got the "thanks for your $10 donation" message:

Third year in a row that I was "unsuccessful."

I got the 12th, hoping for Thorofare route in late August

I did not get one this year. Looks as if any foray north into Wyoming for me this year is going to be a Winds trip.

Never put in..... You can't fight bots

Got April 8th. First time's the charm.

Unfortunately unsuccessful, but I think it’ll be all okay

I got shut out, but someone else got a sort of early date.

The website says 75ish percent sucess rate, but there are an awful lot of rejections here (maybe an awful lot is an exaggeration)
