This has come up in the past when we went to Caryonah. In a couple of cases, the person who put down the deposit traded places with someone who decided to go at the last minute. In another case, Caryonah allowed the deposit to carry over to the next year.
Because of the much larger group we have for 2012 at Wilderness, and because they are much more accommodating, I believe that you would just get your deposit back and they would hope that you could make it the following year.
I'll bring this up with Alan at Wilderness when I next talk to him. But I would be very surprised if they did not return your deposit.
