April 1 marks the start of the 2024 to 2025 off-road recreational vehicle season, so the Michigan Department of Natural Resources reminds all residents to purchase an ORV license and an ORV trail permit. Both the license and trail permit is required, cost a total of $36.25, and can be purchased online through mdnr-elicense.com or in person at a DNR license dealer.
