The senior pass is a great deal, got mine at the nearby regional office of one of the participating agencies - a much better experience than your typical Department of Motor Vehicles visit. Be sure to check the state parks, too - the Federal Pass isn't good there, but I was a bit surprised to find out that Maryland offers a similar deal ($10 pass gives you half-price camping & free day-use admission, AND IT'S OPEN TO NON-RESIDENTS. I had missed that on their website but they offered it to me when I arrived & the discount more than paid for the pass. A much better deal than my own state which charges a considerably higher fee and only gives a 10% discount on camping.
