Rocky Mountain Region

America the Beautiful Interagency Passes
If you recreate frequently on federal lands such as National Forests, National Parks, Bureau of Land Management, or US Fish and Wildlife Service lands, look into purchasing an America the Beautiful Interagency Annual Pass. America the Beautiful Interagency Senior Pass (Persons 62 years of age and older) or America the Beautiful Interagency Access Pass (Persons with permanent disabilities) are also honored at these same locations.

 

Horse Use
A permit is NOT required to ride horses on National Forest lands but you must follow Weed-Free forage guidelines for National Forests in the Rocky Mountain Region.  For details on forage restrictions in the Rocky Mountain Region go to the Weed-Free Forage Web site. Use low impact riding, camping, and horse tethering methods to minimize your animals' impact on natural resources and ensure that camp areas remain enjoyable for others!
