Free America The Beautiful Pass – The National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Pass for active duty military.
You must purchase the pass in person and show a military id or DD Form 1173. If the military member is deployed, immediate family members are able to take advantage of the offer. Good for 1 year after the date of purchase – pass expires the last day of the month. The pass covers entrance to Fish and Wildlife Service and National Park Service sites that charge entrance fees, and standard amenity fees at Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management and Bureau of Reclamation sites.
As you know, we love visiting our National Parks which means we’ll definitely be taking advantage of this offer. The pass is normally $80, so this is a great deal.
How long is this offer good for? We had to buy two passes as we moved from D.C. to LA AFB last summer, and I was so disappointed that we could not even get a military discount! Our current passes are still good through July 31st.

The passes are 2012 passes marked specifically for military, so I’m assuming that this offer will be available for all of 2012.
I should have clarified, we spent 12 days crossing the country and stopped at five National Parks along the way :).

We usually try to do the same thing when we move. 😉
