Default National Park Senior Pass <== get yours now! :)

If you know of anyone who is eligible (62 years old) for a Lifetime National Park Senior Pass... tell them to get it soon.

Its $10 right now, but supposedly may be going up to $80 soon! Heard this from the park we got mine at today. Didn't know when it was going up.... but said it is!

If I could go back to 62 for $80 I would. Thanks for heads up for the kids.

Guess you haven't visited many National Parks, then. Here is a list I found of the ones charging admission:

Best $10 I ever spent!

But even at $80, it's a bargain if you do much traveling.

Lets see.... last year....

Grand Canyon
Bryce
Zion

The Painted Desert
Petrified Forest....

Had to buy an annual pass ($80?) last year.... as I was a month short of getting the senior pass!

If we remotely think we'll end up at one we buy the annual pass. Hopefully the money is going right to the programs that support the parks. At worse, I have a collection of little cards, at best, I have lifetime memories of some stunning places.

I’ll wager to say that I've saved over $1,000 since the purchase of my “National Parks Senior Pass”. My best purchase ever!
