This is relatively unusual given our experience. Certainly if you hit the large parks–Yosemite, Yellowstone, Grand Canyon, etc–you should expect to pay a fee of up to $20/carload. However, you can also purchase an annual parks pass for $80 that gets you into every national park, plus all federally-managed public lands (national forests, wildlife refuges, etc) for free. That’s what we’ve been doing for several years now – with our trips, it pays for itself in just a few days.

If you’re interested in putting together a national park trip, give me a call or email; I can provide lots of advice on both how to do it and where to go.

Are they all free? If so, I might consider doing that for our first vacation as a family.
