In recognition of National Trails Day, the Forest Service is waiving the $5 entrance fee at the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest on Saturday.
Later in the season, the National Park Service will have three fee-free weekends, during which entry to national parks and historic sites is free, the park service announced Tuesday.
In Washington, Mount Rainier National Park, Olympic National Park, Lewis & Clark National Historical Park, Fort Vancouver National Historical Site and Whitman Mission National Historic Site all will waive entrance fees the weekends of June 20-21, July 18-19 and August 15-16.
A complete list of parks participating in the fee-free weekend program can be found at www.nps.gov/findapark/feefreeparks.htm.
The fee waiver does not count toward fees collected by third parties for reservations, camping, tours or concessions.
