Angeles National Forest to hold ‘Fee Free Weekend’

The Angeles National Forest announced today that in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Adventure Pass fees will be waived at trailheads and Forest Service-managed day use sites during the weekend of Jan. 14-16.

“To honor a great champion of civil rights, the normally required National Forest Adventure Pass will be waived this weekend, we are working to ensure as many visitors as possible can experience the numerous recreational opportunities the Angeles National Forest has to offer,” said Thomas A. Contreras, Forest Supervisor of the Angeles in a statement.

Though the Adventure Pass fee will be waived, campground, reservation, group-site, and concession fees may still be in effect.
