Wyoming Snowmobile Permits Update And Registration Question

[MRog40]

I never received my mail order permits after over a month (no big deal with the snow conditions this year) so I called in and learned this: If you ordered permits online through https://wyoparks.wyo.gov/ in 2023, the order went through "ReserveAmerica" who is no longer handling any orders for wyoparks. I was told "ReserveAmerica" had ran out of permits so the whole process was delayed, and that I should receive them by jANUARY 19th at the latest.

Currently in 2024 permits can only be bought in person from businesses throughout WY, a list of agents is provided via PDF here for where to buy in person: https://wyoparks.wyo.gov/index.php/home-trails

While looking into this I came across something I never knew. According to WY law, "Resident snowmobile" means any snowmobile: Titled in Wyoming, Owned by a Wyoming resident, or which is used or kept in Wyoming for more than thirty (30) consecutive days.

Has anyone gotten a resident registration using the 30 days rule? I've only ever bought the non-resident permit, what info do they need if doing a resident registration? For folks that leave sleds there in storage but live in a state like MN it would save them the hassle of buying the MN registration, which is technically required for legal non-resident permit usage.

Don't know how to edit - I meant January 19th aka in a week, not June 19th

They are the same price non vs resident. Doesn’t really matter.

And they can be picked up most anywhere even at Ace hardware. In Wyoming.

Vin number is required for the resident permit.

I put my sticker inside the storage behind the guage on my matryx. Had a ranger in the parking lot tell me I had to remove it and put it on the left side of the sled or buy a new sticker.

They have been pretty aggressive with this over the last few years. I wonder what the push is?

That was just because you ride a polaris. Ha
