Hi. I am new here . I just got an email from recreation.gov that unfortunately my application was not selected for permit. The email also said “keep an eye out for other opportunities to secure a permit for this popular location “ what are the”other opportunities “ and how we can secure them?

at the same page on recreation.gov:

On April 1 Reservations open for remaining dates at 7am PST, slots not taken by lotto winners. Given the volume of entries this year, this is expected to be zero.

On May 1, Dates from unclaimed lottery released for web reservation at 7am PST.

Keep trying at random times, some people are nice and turn in the permits they aren't planning to use.

The 'walk up' last minute permit system, i believe has been replaced by a 2 week ahead of time online last minute permit system. Thats what i'm looking to learn more about, as i've never had a lot of luck on april 1 or may 1 in years past.

March 24, 2021 Lottery results published
April 1, 2021 Reservations open for remaining dates at 7am PST
April 30, 2021 Deadline to confirm awarded lottery reservation and pay reservation fees
May 1, 2021 Dates from unclaimed lottery released for web reservation at 7am PST

So, basically, you can start checking rec.gov April 1st at 7am for any permits that weren't awarded in the lottery.
Then May 1st at 7am, any permits that weren't accepted and paid for will go up for grabs.
