news flash
2024 - 2025 season is almost here! Time to be prepared and purchase your Sno-Park permit. Button just above will take you with one click to the State Parks website for purchasing. Super simple. For those of you who have purchased a permit in previous years will notice it is the same easy peasy process.
Tickets can also be purchased up on the pass at Hyak Sno-Park info booth or by the restrooms, USFS Visitor Center (old Firehouse), and at Crystal Springs entrance using the beautiful kiosk. It is always best to purchase in advance at a vendor close to you.
