When do Saddlehorn reservations open?
It depends on the site. The park releases Saddlehorn sites on recreation.gov at 8 a.m. Mountain Time on three schedules: some 6 months ahead, some 2 weeks ahead and some only on the day you arrive. recreation.gov lists the outer Loop B sites at 6 months, the inner Loop B sites and Loop C sites 70 to 80 at 2 weeks, and Loop C sites 52 to 69, plus Loop A in summer, as day-of only. Groups of 15 or more don't book on recreation.gov: the park asks them to call.
Loop B is open year-round. The park lists Loop A as open April 1 to October 15 and Loop C as open April 21 to October 15 in 2026. recreation.gov gives slightly different loop dates, so check both before a spring or fall trip.
