You must have a valid Sno–Park permit displayed near the lower left corner of the windshield of your vehicle if you park in a designated winter recreation parking area (Sno–Park) between November 1 and April 30. Oregon’s Sno–Park Program is funded entirely by the sale of Sno– Park permits. The program provides funds for snow removal in Sno–Parks and enforcement of the permit requirement. Permits are sold at all DMV offices and by permit sales agents at various resorts, sporting goods stores and other retail outlets. Sales agents may charge an additional service fee for each permit they sell. There are three types of permits:

• An annual permit ($25.00/year or $30.00 when purchased at the Mt. Ashland Ski Area)
• A 3-day permit ($9.00/year)
• A one-time, daily permit ($4.00/day or $6.00 when purchased at the Mt. Ashland Ski Area)

PARKING INFORMATION: Those venturing to Mt. Ashland Ski Area to crosscountry ski or snowshoe are advised to park at the furthest end of the parking lot, both to be nearer to the trails and to avoid the congestion that can occur in the parking lot closer to the Ski Area lodge, lifts, and rental shop. CHAIN AND TRACTION TIRE REQUIREMENTS: There is more than 2,000 vertical feet of elevation gain on the road from I-5 to the Mt. Ashland Ski Area parking lot. Winter driving conditions can change rapidly in the mountains. It is recommended to carry tire chains. When you travel in winter conditions, you must carry chains or traction tires in or on your vehicle, and must use them, when required by the signs posted. For more information on Oregon’s chain and traction tire requirements, go to Oregon Department of Transportation travel web page, Tripcheck.
