WICHITA (AP) — The Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism wants to charge $50 a day for access to fragile rock formations at the state’s newest park.

The Wichita Eagle reports that the department is proposing a $50 permit for anyone who wants “backcountry access” in the Little Jerusalem Badlands State Park in Logan County, which is expected to open next year.

Officials say the fee aims to preserve the rare geological attraction that features chalky spires and buttes.

But the park’s landowner The Nature Conservancy hasn’t approved the permit. The nonprofit says the group is committed to keeping park access affordable and will work with the state to ensure fees are reasonable.

The conservancy purchased land that included Little Jerusalem in 2016 and agreed to make it part of the state park system.
