The Interagency Military Pass covers free entrance for the card holder and everyone in their vehicle, or up to four adults when charged per person. This pass must be renewed annually by current U.S. military members, and can be obtained at any National Park for free, or through the USGS store for a $10 processing fee, and documentation is required. U.S. military veterans and Gold Star families are now qualified for lifetime Interagency Passes.
