Washington Over-Snow Vehicles (WAOSV)

Thanks for visiting the Washington Over-Snow Vehicles group! We are dedicated to working with groups throughout Washington state to formally legalize the dual registration of over-snow vehicles. Starting in 2019, this group and many others, have worked with Washington legislation to legalize tracked all-terrain vehicles on groomed trails. In 2021, SB 5016 was signed and has made our hopes a reality.
