Pro Tips:

• If you plan to visit 3 or more national parks (including this visit) within the next year, it saves money to get the America the Beautiful Pass, which is an annual pass to all sites ran by the National Park Service! It can be purchased at the gate upon arrival or in advance at stores like REI.
