LANSING, Mich. — The Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is holding its first free snowmobiling weekend next month.
Snowmobilers will be permitted to ride without a permit, registration or license Feb. 11–12, according to the DNR.
"Free Snowmobiling Weekend is a great opportunity for those that haven’t dusted off their snowmobiles to jump on the trails," says Parks and Recreation Division Chief Ron Olson. “It’s also a great time for out-of-state visitors to come explore thousands of miles of trails found in the Upper and Lower peninsulas.”
We’re told free snowmobiling weekend was made possible by a series of bills that passed the state Legislature.
Snowmobilers are still required to obey all rules and regulations. Visit the state of Michigan’s website for more information.
