Grab your camera, hiking boots & pack and head outdoors. This Friday, August 4, will mark the third anniversary of the Great American Outdoors Act. To celebrate, all national parks will offer free entry! Talk about perfect timing – especially since some front-range kiddos head back to school NEXT WEEK.

Here is a list of National Parks that you and the family can visit free, this Friday, in Colorado:

Black Canyon of the Gunnison – Montrose, CO

Colorado National Monument – Fruita, CO

Great Sand Dunes – Mosca, CO

Florissant Fossil Beds – Florissant, CO

Mesa Verde – Mesa Verde, CO

Rocky Mountain National Park – Estes Park, CO (Note: R.M.N.P. requires a timed entry permit. Reserve a timed entry permit here on August 3 at 5pm.)
