State of Michigan increases snowmobile permit price

“Michigan snowmobilers will face higher trail fees this season. The state has raised the price for a season permit to $45, from $35 last year.

The fee will remain $45 through the 2015 snowmobile season. A state law signed in 2008 provided for the incremental increase in snowmobile trail fees, which support maintenance and grooming of the state’s snowmobile trail network.

“We have strong relationships with our partners in the snowmobile community,” Jim Radabaugh, section manager for the DNR’s Recreation and Trails Program in the Forest Management Division, told the Niles Daily Star. “It is because of our partnership with 68 snowmobile trail sponsors that Michigan is able to offer over 6,400 miles of designated, groomed and signed trails.”

The fee hike is to keep up with rising trail maintenance and preservation costs.”
