On Veterans Day weekend, Nov. 11-13, 2011, all national parks and monuments are free to visit for everyone, not just veterans.
This is a great time of year to visit Joshua Tree National Park which is one of my personal favorite parks. Check out the Wonderland of Rocks, my favorite part of the park.
There are 392 national parks and monuments in this country, so there should be one you want to check out, don’t you think?
The fine print: *Fee waiver includes: entrance fees, commercial tour fees and transportation entrance fees. Other fees such as reservation, camping, tours, concession and fees collected by third parties are not included unless stated otherwise.
Some parks in California that you can get into for free:
