America the Beautiful Senior Lifetime Pass

For you Old Geezers (like me) that have had a Senior Lifetime Pass for a number of years, your existing pass is now available digitally on your phone. First you have to set up an account (if you don't already have one) at "recreation.gov" where you can then link your existing senior pass to your account. You're going to need the number on your physical card to do this, so if you lost your card and don't know the number you're SOL. Then you download the "recreation.gov app" to you phone and log in. Once you log in the pass will be available in the app for your use in entrance into NPS, Forest Service, BLM, USCOE, etc. facilities (anywhere your physical card is accepted). Note: acceptable ID and your physical presence is still required when you use the pass.

You can also download a pdf copy of your pass (which is also accepted for entrance) and/or download the card to your "wallet app".
