An Act to establish a free snowmobile weekend
HD 183 establishes an annual three-day "free snowmobile weekend" in Massachusetts, allowing non-residents to operate snowmobiles on public lands and private lands with agreements from the Snowmobile Association of Massachusetts (or its affiliated clubs) without needing a Massachusetts registration or Trail Pass. This applies only during a mutually agreed-upon weekend in the winter season, provided non-residents show proof of valid registration from any U.S. state or Canadian province. The bill directly affects non-resident snowmobilers seeking to use Massachusetts trails during this designated period. It requires coordination between the Massachusetts Office of Law Enforcement and the Snowmobile Association to set the specific dates each year.
