As would-be visitors start checking their calendars and planning their trips to Great Smoky Mountains National Park, there’s one pesky issue they need to keep in mind: parking.

According to park authorities, the new tag program has helped generate over $10 million in recreation fee revenue since last year. That hefty chunk of change will pay for 25 more park rangers, better maintained roads and facilities, as well as a plan for more parking spots, the park said.
But actually complying with the Park it Forward program can be confusing − so Knox News has put together a guide to help.
