| Have you reserved a spot and driven up to watch the sunrise? How did you like it? |
| We did but our day was overcast so there wasn’t a clear rising. Check the weather before booking. |
| You have to log in right at 10am to snag a spot. |
Yes, and practice the day before. You need to know the exact keystrokes. |
Tell me about this. We’re going in September. Looks like days are opened 1 week in advance? |
| We are doing this next week but not for sunrise, I think our ticket is like 7:30 am. I’ve heard it can be quite cold up there at sunrise! |
Was it easy to get a reservation? |
If you aren't picky on time you can book easily IME |
Good to know…do you need a reservation to go at any time of day? Or only certain hours? Obviously people want to go for sunrise…but it’s also a great view all day right? |
| Great view all day |
You need a reservation for any time you go. |
There are two different reservation pages for sunrise and rest of the day. When we tried to book on the website on a laptop and mobile device a confirmation button wasn’t appearing and I got an error message. It worked on the app. Side note, we decided to go for sunset because sunrise was around 5:30. Just something to be prepared for depending on when you go. I went as a kid at my request because I wanted to take pictures and loved the excitement of it. But it’s not necessarily anything more beautiful that sunrise on any other mountain. |
When did this happen? We were there five years ago, and you just walked up the hill. |
Pretty much nothing is the same as it was 5 years ago in any sphere of life. This is true also of the national parks, many of which you now need a permit to enter or at least need a permit for certain roads and areas of the park, such as Cadillac Mountain. I believe it’s only open to cars now as well. |
| It was foggy both days we went. Bummer. |
