COLORADO (KOAA) — Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) has implemented an out-of-state vehicle license plate daily parks pass.
CPW says the Parks and Wildlife Commission (PWC) recently approved a park pass for vehicles with out-of-state license plates for $15 a day. The fee went into effect on Friday.
According to CPW, a similar fee structure is used on other CPW products.
Vehicles with Colorado license plates can still purchase the annual Keep Colorado Wild pass with their vehicle registration for $29 per year, or purchase a daily park pass for $10 a day.
CPW says a $2 fee for residents and out-of-state license plates is in effect at the following parks:
- Chatfield State Park (Littleton)
- Elk Head Reservoir State Park (Craig)
- Golden Gate Canyon State Park (Golden)
- Pearl Lake State Park (Routt County)
- Stagecoach State Park (Routt County)
- State Forest State Park (Larimer County)
- Steamboat Lake State Park (Routt County)
