Passes & Permits

Photo of a person riding horseback though a meadow.Most national forests and grasslands are open, free of charge, for your use and enjoyment. Fees may be charged and permits required for some activities and locations. Business permittees, such as campground concessionaires and outfitter guides, may provide services to public land users.

Golden Passports

Golden passports can provide either free entrance or a discount for certain recreation fees. There are three types of passports available:

Golden Eagle—for the
general public, $65

Golden Age—for senior
citizens, $10

Golden Access—for
blind or permanently
disabled individuals, FREE

Since the Medicine Bow-Routt National Forests, Thunder Basin National Grassland does not have a general entrance fee, the Golden Eagle passport is generally not used here. The forest continues to honor Golden Age and Golden Access Passports at all fee campgrounds

Permits

Permits are required for certain individual and commercial activities that occur on the forest and grassland:

Christmas Trees

Firewood Gathering

Transplants

 

Permitted Services

To obtain campground, outfitter guide, and other services from commercial companies who operate through Forest Service permits, please contact them directly.

 

Recreation Fee Demonstration Program
