Washington's Discover Pass -- $30 a year or $10 a day -- debuts in July 2011 as a requirement for vehicles parking in state parks and most other state DNR and Fish and Wildlife lands and facilities.

A Discover Pass is not required Saturday or Sunday in honor of National Get Outdoors Day and Fishing Day respectively. Washington State Parks offers several free days each year.

Plus, Washington’s free fishing days are this weekend. No license is needed to fish or gather shellfish in Washington waters.

Upcoming free park days are as follows: Aug. 25, Sept. 22, Nov. 11 and Nov. 23.
