would you pay $41 to enter a National Park?

I too will say bs to it. The entrance fee is $25 for a 7 day pass not per day.

Not only that, most of the people that come often to NPs either have an annual pass, or a senior or disabled pass, so raising the fees does not effect those folks. I believe a minority of the visitors will actually pay a 'day pass' ... either a week or annual.
