The US Forest Service has completed a nationwide inventory and review of recreation fees in what the agency calls “High Impact Recreation Areas,” or HIRAs. If recommendations from the agency’s Washington Office are implemented, the public could see a substantial reduction in where fees are required on National Forests.
