Thank you for your question! Some of Umpqua National Forest campsites can be reserved, but many operate on a first come, first serve basis. You can visit this website www.recreation.gov or call 1-877-444-6777 to reserve a campsite at Umqua. 

Enjoy your trip!

Hello, 

Thank you for your question! If you are looking for an Oregon campsite with good amenities, then the Mazama campsite located in Crater Lake National Park is the place you’ll want to stay. Mazama does have showers, restrooms, and great hiking spots close by. They do not accept bookings, however, it is first come first serve. You can learn more about it at this link https://www.nps.gov/crla/planyourvisit/mazama_campground.htm

Have a great trip!

Hello, 

Thank you for your question! Bryce Canyon does allow horses brought into their parks to ride, however you must hire a guide to ride along with you. You can read more about that at this link: https://www.nationalparkstraveler.org/2014/03/you-can-ride-your-own-horse-bryce-canyon-national-park-you-have-hire-guide24806
As for Zion and Paria Canyons, they do offer horseback riding tours, but you would need to call in advance to bring in your own horses. You can call specific ranches in advance to see if they will allow your own stock onto the trails. You can get that Southern Utah ranch info here: http://www.visitsouthernutah.com/Horseback-Riding

You can also purchase any of the passes, including the multi-park annual at the entrance gate or visitor center if the specific park doesn't have "mandatory" gates.

If you dislike using a credit card online, that's a good option.

By mandatory gate I mean parks like Yellowstone or Grand Canyon, where the park has gatehouses at each entrance where NPS rangers will greet you, give you the park information handouts, and let you purchase your pass.

Other parks, like Death Valley, have many routes in that are not always manned and don't even real gate houses. On the main roads there are at least signs when you enter the park, and sometimes a sort of ticket kiosk where you insert your money and get a pass, but you can generally skip these and just stop at the first visitor center you come across and buy the pass from the NPS staff there.

Late night entry at the parks I've seen, even with proper gatehouses, generally follows that second, "honor system" method.
