A pass is your ticket to more than 2,000 federal recreation sites. Each pass covers entrance fees at national parks and national wildlife refuges as well as standard amenity fees at national forests and grasslands, and at lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management and Bureau of Reclamation. A pass covers entrance and standard amenity fees for a driver and all passengers in a personal vehicle at per vehicle fee areas (or up to four adults at sites that charge per person). Children age 15 or under are admitted free.

Generally at the major park entrances like Yosemite and Yellowstone. All NPs should have em, but some are understaffed, so don't be surprised if there's nobody manning the booth. If that's the case, the Visitor Centers might have em too.
