Trail Tax Increase for North Dakota Snowmobilers

North Dakota lawmakers approve an increase to a snowmobile “trail tax” that’s used to maintain state trails.

The House approved the Senate measure that increases the trail tax from $35 to $45.

The bill also raises the trail access fee for out-of-state snowmobilers from $15 to $25.

The Legislature estimates the increase will result in an additional $214,000 that will be deposited into the State Snowmobile Fund over the next two years.
