Then, after turning in the booklet, the junior ranger receives a badge and certificate that the junior ranger has earned. Inquire at the visitor center front desk.

Did You Know?
Each Independence day, local climbers scale the iconic Independence Monument in Colorado National Monument and raise an American flag on top. This tradition dates back to early park promoter John Otto, whose route up Independence Monument climbers still follow.
