How’s $70 to get in to one of your favorite National Parks?
How will this impact tourism in Utah? “The National Park Service is accepting public comment until Nov. 23. . . Park service officials estimate that the fee hike will produce $68.6 million in added revenue in its first year. Eighty percent will remain in the park where it’s collected and 20 percent will go to projects in other national parks. . . The cost of admission would rise to $70 per vehicle at Bryce Canyon, Zion, Arches and Canyonlands national parks during their five busiest months under a proposal outlined Tuesday. . .The NPS identified 17 parks for the new fee schedule, which also would charge $50 per motorcycle, and $30 per person not in a personal vehicle.”
