I do that anytime I choose since 2009.
Note: Do not carry in a facility (building) where park employees regularly work. Must have clear and obvious signage restricting.

"The change in federal law basically means that national park visitors must obey the federal, state, and local gun laws appropriate to the parks they are visiting. It's a sharp change to previous laws that severely restricted guns in the national parks, generally requiring them to be locked or stored."

"In a stinging defeat for gun-control, the U.S. Congress has voted to allow people to carry loaded guns in national parks and wildlife refuges."

This article is out dated. The law they are referring to was known as the "CREDIT CARD ACCOUNTABILITY RESPONSIBILITY AND DISCLOSURE ACT OF 2009" and was repealed as it related to national parks, but was reenacted in Public Law 113-287 in 2014, known as "ENACTMENT OF TITLE 54—NATIONAL PARK SERVICE AND RELATED PROGRAMS."
