The Parks and Wildlife Commission (PWC) approved final regulations increasing snowmobile registration and permit fees at the March 5-6, 2025 PWC meeting. The PWC approved increasing the fee for snowmobile registration and permit fees from $30 to $50 (not including the $0.25 Backcountry Search and Rescue surcharge) . Thank you for providing input on snowmobile registration and permit fees.
Snowmobile registration and permit fees fund snowmobile related projects including trail grooming, maintenance, and construction. Registration and permit fees were last increased in 2007. CPW heard suggestions to increase snowmobile registration and permit fees from some snowmobile users. CPW staff then sought input from snowmobile users on potentially raising registration and permit fees.
How Were Snowmobile Users Engaged?
CPW notified recent snowmobile registrants of the potential fee increase and opportunities to learn more and provide input. A virtual public meeting was held to provide information on the Colorado snowmobile program and discuss a potential registration and permit fee increase. Watch the recording of the September 25th Virtual Meeting to learn more.
Input from snowmobile users on potential registration and permit fee rates was gathered through polling questions at the virtual meeting and through a feedback form on Engage CPW. Members of the public were also invited to leave feedback and see other public input through the Guestbook tool below. Public input was collected through October 28, 2024.
The State Trails Committee also discussed potential increased registration and permit fee rates. Division staff collaborated with the State Trails Committee prior to public engagement to identify possible fee levels to solicit public feedback on. Following initial outreach to snowmobile users, the State Trails Committee met again to further discuss a potential fee increase.
