America the Beautiful pass(es).

Post by hikeaz »

Starting November 11, 2022, a new lifetime pass will be available for U.S. Military Veterans and Gold Star Families. The pass provides free entrance to more than 2,000 federal recreation sites spread out across more than 400 million acres of public lands, including national parks, wildlife refuges, and forests.

Veterans can present one of the four forms of acceptable ID (Department of Defense ID Card, Veteran Health ID (VHIC), Veteran ID Card, or veteran’s designation on a state-issued US driver’s license or ID card) at participating federal recreation areas that normally charge an entrance fee. Gold Star Families can obtain information, self-certify they qualify, and download a voucher online.

If ordered online there is a (I believe) $10.00 "processing fee"; in person they should be "free".
