All About Blue Mountain Snowmobile Club
Founded on December 30, 1970, the Blue Mountain Snowmobile Club was founded based on a love of riding snowmobiles. Since then, we have expanded to include snow bikes and side-by-sides as well. Our Snowmobile Club consists of getting together on a regular basis in order to enjoy the beautiful Blue Mountains and activities based on our common interest. We ride, host cook-outs, participate in events, and most importantly we create friendships. Blue Mountain Snowmobile Club promotes and expects a non-judgmental and supportive attitude from participants. If you’re interested in joining or would like to learn more, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Local and Regional Laws/Regulations
Enjoying snow sports and making memories with family and friends is priceless, but tickets and fines are expensive. Here is what you need to know if you plan on visiting the Blues!
In-State Registration
All Washington snowmobiles must be registered through the Washington State Department of Licensing (DOL).
Snowmobile registrations are valid Oct. 1 - Sept. 30. The fee is $50 and includes one Sno-Park permit (a vehicle parking permit required at designated Sno-Parks) for each registered snowmobile as well as a decal that must be placed on each registered sled. You can find registration information by clicking the button below.
Parking Permits
In-state and out-of-state vehicles using Sno-parks for snowmobiling are required to purchase a Sno-Park permit. The Sno-Park permit must be affixed to the towing vehicle on the inside of the windshield (driver's side) in the lower left corner, whenever the towing vehicle is parked in a designated Sno-Park. For more information and to buy a Sno-park permit, click the button below.
Out-of-State Registration
Washington recognizes equivalent out-of-state registrations and does not require registration in Washington if the machine is in Washington for less than 15 consecutive days.
Washington currently recognizes Oregon registrations, but does not recognize Idaho. Idaho riders must apply for a nonresident temporary permit found using the button below. You can get a nonresident temporary permit for up to 60 consecutive days.
Other Rules
Curious about other relevant snowmobile laws in Washington? It's always good to know before you ride! Washington laws are ruled by RCWs and WACs. Agencies such as Washington State Parks and Rec and local policing agencies have important rules and requirements as well. For more information click below.
Parking at Touchet Corrals Sno-Park
The Sno-Park can get packed quickly so please park according to the diagram. If driving from Dayton, drive to the far end of the park and turn in. The first row should be parked along the bank and the second and third row closest to the road with enough room for vehicles and trailers to pull out in the middle. Do your part to help make everyone's ride great!
Don't forget to swing by the Yurt for some food and drinks!
