    Surprised that Isle Royale NP in Michigan is not listed here. I read last year that the National Parks in Canada are free to enter all this year.

      Yes, all parks in Canada are free for 2017!

        My family is visiting Alberta Canada this July. We submitted our information for the free park pass. It took awhile to arrive in the mail. Plan to reserve a pass ahead of time.
