The U.S. Forest Service will waive fees at day-use recreation sites in Oregon on National Public Lands Day and on Veterans Day.

A release said the agency offers several fee-free days annually to encourage Americans to explore the outdoors and visit their public lands.

The fee waiver includes many Forest Service picnic areas, boat launches, trailheads and visitor centers. Fees for camping, cabin rentals, or other permits still apply. Fees will continue to be charged at recreation sites operated by concessionaires unless the individual manager chooses to participate.

The dates fees will be waived are Saturday September 25th and Thursday November 11th. More details are available at: https://www.fs.usda.gov/visit/passes-permits
