I believe that it was in 2016 that the National Parks began issuing the 'America the Beautiful Senior Pass' for $80, and it lasts a lifetime. However, your pass might be a Lifetime Senior Pass purchased prior to 2016 (when they were $10!). If so, it is still valid. They also offer an Annual Senior Pass ($20) now, valid for one year. (If you have 4 of these Annual Senior Passes, you can trade them in for a lifetime pass.) Hope this is helpful.
