National Forest Adventure Pass?View MessagesViewing posts 1 to 6 of 6 messages posted.
“Anyone know the latest status of this fee? What is the National Forest Adventure Pass? The COURTS have ruled Adventure Pass is discretionary (not mandatory) . The pass is inexpensive ($5 a day or $30 for an annual pass) ” 7:33:53 PM 1/09/03 “I have always used the Parks Pass. Its $50. 8)” 8:35:52 PM 1/09/03 “National Parks have long charged daily or annual visitation fees while the Forests have not. This is apparently a way of extorting money from recreational users to make up for the lack of fees for timber extraction. I don't think it's being used anywhere in the East yet. I bet it starts up here within the next year or two though.” 11:59:17 AM 1/10/03 “NS, you might want to check into the Golden Age Passport. The $10 lifetime fee entitles you to free access to federal fee areas. Check here Site Link” 12:06:44 PM 1/10/03 “All I know is it costs a TON to get into Yosemite for a 10 days. $25 maybe? What a rip!” 12:24:03 PM 1/10/03 “Geobeet - Thanks. I have had a Golden Age Card for years. But the third link that I posted indicates that I still have to pay 50% for the Adventure Pass. Most Park admissions are free with my card. In the second link, it states, "The COURTS have ruled Adventure Pass is discretionary (not mandatory}." So, I'm trying to find out if the charge is still in effect.” 1:27:10 PM 1/10/03
