I didn't know a pass was required.. is that something new? Or have I just been lucky so far? Lol

Not required, but this waves any entrance fees associated with entering the park and some of the fees while visiting. Can get 50% discount on some fees. Right now it is $10.00 for the rest of my life. Not a bad deal, in August the pass will increase to $80.00. Also can wave fees at many state parks.

Why in the world would it go from a $10 pass to an $80 pass? Did they add more state parks throughout the country or something??

Not sure, but the price increase happens in August, I am glad to have mine.

I buy an annual pass yearly. Very handy just for the conveniece plus it's for a good cause even if I don't use it enough to justify the cost. Hard to say I wish I was 62 but I'm glad you got yours. Now get out and see America!

I'll have to check into the passes.. some of the places we go are free, others have a entry fee.. it's not uncommon for us to spend $30+ just getting into some of the recreation areas, not to mention trying to get a campsite or anything! Lol..
