    Default NATIONAL PARK PASS...did they change it?

    For the recent national park pass, did they change the size and the type of material used?

    I know for the previous one (one with the soldiers), it was thicker and longer.

    I bought one today from a kijiji seller that has the green and a cabin and a family on it and it's smaller (like almost a square) and the material is flimsy.

    New one is definitely flimsier....almost too cheaply made.
    We've got the 2015-16 pass...and I was wondering the same.

    Are there spelling mistakes? Did you buy off someone named Zhou? It could be a knock off.

    I miss the old brown and yellow decals they used to give you.

    Nah no spelling mistakes. No the seller wasn't an Asian. What's the history behind Zhou?

    I was questioning about the flimsiness of the pass. National Parks Dept must be cutting costs on their spending?

    Picture of the one I bought in July. Yeah it is just card stock now, about the same thickness and stiffness as a file folder. They used to be plastic and held up much better. These... Not so much.

    Does anyone know how to get a discount on the discovery pass? I think Campers Village offers 10% off (could be wrong), just wondering if there's better options
