Winter Camping

[Stonedfish]

I wasn’t aware that this was available to folks 62 years or older. This might be a good option for some who enjoy winter camping at our state parks and makes camping more affordable.

Sounds like a helluva deal.

Looks like the state equivalent to the federal Senior Pass for national parks, forests, and other federal lands.

Which also gets you a 50% discount any time in National Forest campgrounds! The senior pass that is.

from high altitude lake boat ramps to beach entrance fees, my lifetime Senior Pass has saved me mucho dinero over the past 12 years

Not exactly. It isn't valid for the entire year and must be purchased annually.

I got my Fed Senior Pass when it was still $10. Paid for itself the first time I used it.

Same here. In fact the BLM campground host refused to take my money until I drove up the road a ways and bought one. Love that guy! I should put him in my will!

Also Veterans with any Service connected disability rating can get a free lifetime Interagency Access Pass that gives free entrance to Federal Lands and the 50% discount on camping and other amenities. I've had mine since 2009. Show your Veteran Health Identification Card (VHIC) with “SERVICE CONNECTED” below the photo on the front of the card, or your VA letter of eligibility, (but get the VHIC if you don't have one, lots of Veterans discounts available even if not Service Connected).

And current Military ID, a non-SERVICE CONNECTED VHIC, or Veterans' ID Card (VIC) gets you a free annual Military Pass for free entrance, but no other discounts.

Free Entrance to National Parks for Current Military, Veterans, and Gold Star Families (U.S. National Park Service)

BThe free Military Pass is a way to thank current US military members and their dependents, Gold Star Families, and US military veterans for their support of our country and to encourage them to explore recreational opportunities on their public lands and waters.

BTW, when getting Mrs Brian's free lifetime Veterans Interagency Access Pass this year (PACT) we encountered a GPNF Ranger that hadn't seen a (SERVICE CONNECTED) VHIC but was familiar with the FREE Veterans Pass programs. A simple explanation what the card signifies gave the Ranger some training, and the Access Pass was issued.
