Fees At Sand Mountain

As part of the recreation fee program authorized by Congress, the Bureau of Land Management is collecting fees at Sand Mountain Recreation Area.   One of the main benefits of this program is that up to 100% of the fees collected at Sand Mountain will be reinvested on site.   The fees are as follows:

Weekly Pass $40 Good for up to 7 days from time of purchase.
The weekly pass may be purchased by:
     1) Use of the fee collection station at Sand Mountain Recreation Area.   Fees may be paid by cash, exact change required, or by check.  Dates cannot be changed.
     2) Visiting our office at 5665 Morgan Mill Road, Carson City, NV. 89701.  Monday - Friday 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.  Dates cannot be changed.

     4) Mail in a request for an annual pass to 5665 Morgan Mill Road, Carson City, NV. 89701
     

In order to process your request for a pass, BLM will need the license number (s), make & model of the vehicle (s) you wish to register.

The annual pass is valid for two licensed vehicles registered to the same address; however, both registered vehicles need a separate pass (weekly or annual) if visiting Sand Mountain on the same day.  Every vehicle must have a pass onsite.

If you no longer own a vehicle listed on the annual pass, you may transfer the pass to another vehicle registered to the same address.  Please call our office to make these changes.

Annual and weekly passes are valid for only one unit per day.

There are no date changes allowed on weekly passes; weekly passes are non-transferable.  All passes are non-refundable.

A unit requiring a fee is defined as a registered street-legal vehicle and if attached, a trailer, vehicle in tow, 5th wheel, etc.   The use fee covers all people within that unit.   The fee sticker will be displayed upon the vehicle's rear view mirror while at Sand Mountain.

Fee revenues collected at Sand Mountain focus on visitor services, facility  maintenance and resource protection.   Each year the Carson City Field Office will publish how these fees were spent for public review.
