Website
Remember all snowmobiles, regardless of their state/province of origin, are required to purchase an Idaho snowmobile registration. It is the law. All recreation vehicles operating over snow in the winter are required to purchase a snowmobile sticker (A summer OHV sticker is not valid for this activity in the winter). The sticker pays for grooming, plowing of the parking lots, and all snowmobile-related activities. Without your contribution to the county grooming programs, grooming and parking lot plowing will cease to exist.
Please note, every effort is made to groom the trails according to the schedule. However, we reserve the right to make changes without notice.
