I hate it when anything goes up but I have to agree with Viper on this one...

285 $ for an annual trail permit purchased after December 9, 2009

350 $ for an annual trail permit sold on trail*
150 $ for an annual trail permit for antique snowmobiles (1990 and older)

90 $ for a 3-day trail permit

I sled/fish on a river where one side is Ontario the other is Quebec. I'm debating which side I'll be buying this year. Most of the sledders I know purchases both passes. $$$

Just thought I would add. I rode Washington (near the 4th of July pass and also Snohomish pass) last year and it was some of the best riding I have ever done. The trails go on forever and there is a lot of state land due to the mountains and valleys, not to mention logging industry. I ran into some elevation issues due to the rapid assents into the hills and mountain passes. We passed into Canada a few times, never ran into any issues but had our passports on us just in case. Not recommended for single riding or stock 121 tracks. Had a lot of issues with my friends getting bogged down in the deep powder.

Never rode Ontario, but the grooming looks like this midweek. I know Quebec is wide open speedways... if you like that kind of riding. Lower MI is alot of tighter twisties thru the woods, where Upper MI is wider, faster trails.chris189 said:SO for 35 bucks, what are Michigan trails like? I want input from someone who has ridden GOOD trails in ontario versus michigan trails.
Is it worth a trip? I know we went to Quebec once and it was great. wide open go time!
Do you have to go into the northern half of Michigan? That would be quite a drive for me.
Just wondering what the grooming and stuff is like for 35 bucks. ANy input is great.
With the amount of traffic we have (350,000 registered sleds), the grooming can only hold so long. Most areas do a nice job of keeping up with all but the heaviest traffic, conditions permitting.
Nice jacket, delemi.

Fee changes for snowmobile permits
• In addition to registration of a snowmobile in Michigan or from another state or province, a person who desires to operate a snowmobile in this state needs to purchase a snowmobile trail permit sticker.
• The snowmobile trail permit sticker is valid for a year, which begins Oct. 1 and ends Sept. 30 of the following year.
• Senate Bill 1490 increased trail permits from $25 to $35 for 2009-2010, then to $45 for 2011 through 2015.
• The price would be set by the inflation index beginning in 2016.
• Michigan has more than 6,500 miles of trails on public and private lands used for snowmobiling from Dec. 1 to March 31. Trail grooming is done almost entirely by clubs and business associations, most of whom are volunteers.
