These fees, which will begin on July 14, 2025, aim to preserve natural resources and improve public health and safety. The expanded amenity fees are $20 per night for developed campsites, and individual special recreation permits for on-river camping will cost between $20 and $100 per night, depending on group size. Price adjustments over time will be guided by the Western U.S. Consumer Price Index.
