Hey Kids! Be a Junior Ranger!

Pick up a Junior Ranger book at any ranger program, the Mill, any visitor center, or from your campground host. Then check out the fun activities, do what you can, and present your book to a ranger to get your official Junior Ranger badge!

It's free and it's fun!

You and your family are always welcome to join us on a hike or for a slide show. Click here to learn about Ranger Programs.
