1. Yes, Per Grant County Code 11.30.030, any ATV, ORV, or any other vehicle (excluding motorcycles) must be equipped with a flag for added visibility in a bright red or brilliant orange color, measuring at least forty-eight inches square, mounted on a pole placing the flag a minimum of one hundred eight inches above the ground when the vehicle is stationary. Such flag shall be displayed as to be visible from all directions, maintaining nearly all of the required height when the vehicle is in motion. (Flag does not need to be 4’X4′) 6″X8″ flag is sufficient.
2. Flags can be purchased at any of our Powersports Shops, and Auto Parts Stores. You can also order them ahead of time from Dunestar Whips (Find them on Facebook)

1. Current License Plate or ORV Tag
2. If you do not have Plates, you must purchase an ORV Tag. The vehicle/orv/atv must have current licensing from any state. If you don’t have current licensing, Winzler sells ORV permits for $15.75. You will need your unexpired government-issued ID, a year, make, model, and VIN if it has one. If it does not, we will consider the vehicle/ORV/ ATV to be homemade and issue the off-road vehicle permit without the VIN. These permits do not relieve a Washington resident from titling/licensing their ORV but can be used in the meantime. Our office processes a large amount of homemade/altered vehicle transactions. Contact us to find out what we can do to help you get your ORV a Washington state license.
3. Fish & Wildlife is encouraging users to have a Discovery Pass, requirements coming down pipeline in the future, for all attendees. If you have a fishing license, you already have a discovery pass. Discovery passes can be purchased at Winzler Vehicle licensing.
