No fees = free admission to all national parks from Saturday, April 17 through Sunday, April 25. Such a deal!
Here’s what the National Park Service says about the no-fee period:
America’s Best Idea – the national parks – gets even better this year with several fee-free days at more than 100 national parks that usually charge entrance fees*.
Mark your calendar for fee-free days this year:
* April 17-25, 2010
(National Park Week)
* September 25, 2010
(Public Lands Day)
* November 11, 2010
(Veterans Day)
And to make the fun even more affordable, many national park concessioners are joining the National Park Service in welcoming visitors on this summer’s fee free weekends with the their own special offers.
Free entrance to National Parks April 17-25

Of all those California National Parks you listed, I’d love to visit Yosemite again.
