This will help.

There's a $40 annual pass good only at Grand Canyon, a $50 annual pass good at any national park, or you can pay $20 at Grand Canyon for a weekly vehicle pass (everyone in the vehicle admitted for 1 week, with some conditions attached). There are some price breaks for senior citizens and disabled for the $50 pass, not sure what applies for the others.

For seniors, it's more than a "price break." It's perhaps the best bargain this country has to offer.....a lifetime pass to all parks and other recreational areas for onoy $10.

A bargain indeed available for retirees. We've used our free Golden Eagle pass over the years including campgrounds. As we head west in a month we will really find it a bargain at Grand Canyon, Mesa Verde, Bryce Canyon, etc.

We're not old enought to get the Golden Eagle Park Pass, but we buy the National Park pass every year for $50 and still save tons of money. If we go to three of the big parks in one year, it more than pays for itself.

Not to mention all the National monuments (those $3 entries can add up...)
