I got this off another reflector. Even if you miss the deadline to 
purchase the lifetime senior pass at $10, it will still be a bargain at 
$80 later. If you go in person, it is $10, I chose to purchase mine 
online and save the drive. There was a $10 processing fee, still making 
it a bargain.

For those of us over 62 and U.S. Citizens or Permanent Residents, or 
know someone who is:

If you have lifetime Golden Eagle or Senior Pass, you are good.

If you do not, you can still get a Lifetime Senior Interagency Pass for 
$10.  That price is only good through August 27th, after which it goes 
to $80.  Even the annual senior pass is going up to $20.  These passes 
are basically good for Forest Service, and Parks Service facilities, 
nationwide, and covers Day Use fees.  It gets you a discount on other 
fees, but not necessarily at the concessions.

You can check it out and order online:

A small investment if you are over 62 and don't have a lifetime pass.
