OK - It's looks like I have to go 
RX-1MAN and Dar6ren lets set a time to meet and go up in a couple vehicles. I just need to know how early on Saturday I'll need to leave the Philly area. Towing my trailer it'll take about 3:30 to get to Marathon.

Any chance me and my friend could meet up with you fine folks if need be? Finding some folks to ride with has been quite the challenge so far!

A buddy and I are also planning to go to the Tug Hill area this weekend.
We'll be heading out from Ottawa, Canada either Saturday mid-morning or Sunday very early.
I posted a few questions in the Lounge (we've never ridden in the area).

Topic is getting long winded. Anyone wanting to figure out where to meet can PM me. Kevin and I work together so we are already planning on riding.

Do you have to mail-in registration papers or can you walk-in to a DMV office?

You can go to DMV but be prepaired with 30,000 forms of ID, and something that says you what paid and if you paid sales tax or they will charge you the tax then.
BTW I think Oneida county is still 8.25% tax, Lewis is only 7%
Here's the info from the DMV site.
Snowmobiles
Does my snowmobile require a registration in New York State?
You must register your snowmobile if you operate the snowmobile in New York State. A registration is not required if the snowmobile is operated on the private property of the owner or private property the owner has a contractual right to use. A snowmobile that is registered in another state and owned by a resident of that state, but is operated in NYS, must get a NYS registration. New York State also requires a registration on trailers.
Snowmobile registration numbers are permanently assigned to the snowmobile when it is first registered. If you have a snowmobile that was first registered before August 1995, you must supply the numbers that attach to your snowmobile. You must display those numbers on each side of the snowmobile hood. The numbers must be:
* made from a reflective material,
* block style and 3 inches high or taller,
* a color different from the hood and easy to see.
* Be sure to include a hyphen or a space between the last number and the capital letters.
After August 1995, new snowmobile registrations receive a Registration Decal set. Attach the decals to each side of the hood. Validation stickers are issued annually. Put the stickers on the upper left-hand corner of the decal. Put the annual validation stickers to the left of the numbers on snowmobiles registered before 1995.
How do I register my snowmobile?
To register your snowmobile, bring the following items to a DMV office:
* A completed form MV-82SN (Snowmobile Registration Application).
* A completed form DTF-802 (Statement of Transaction for Sales Tax ) or proof of exemption or tax paid. (See the DMV Forms page for additional tax information and forms).
* Proof of ownership and bill of sale. Non-residents can use photocopies of proof of ownership and are not required to pay the NYS sales tax if the snowmobile is registered in another state.
* Proof of identity.
* Cash, check or credit card for the fee. Pay the registration fee of $45.
How do I renew my snowmobile registration?
You cannot renew a snowmobile registration on-line. Use your renewal notice to renew by mail. If you do not have a renewal notice, apply for the renewal with form MV-82SN or visit your local DMV office.
Are helmets required when on a snowmobile?
Yes. Since April 1, 1998, NYS requires each operator and passenger on a snowmobile to wear protective headgear approved by the Commissioner of the NYS Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation. You are not required to wear a helmet if:
* the snowmobile is operated on property where the operator or passenger is the property owner
* the snowmobile is operated on private property which the operator or passenger has a contractual right to use. This exemption does not apply if the owner or passenger is a member of a club or association and the owner does not receive compensation for snowmobile operation.
Is it against the law to operate a snowmobile while under the influence of alcohol or drugs?
Yes. A court can suspend the privilege of a person to operate a snowmobile if the person is convicted of snowmobiling under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The court can also suspend the snowmobile registration. The law also provides for strict penalties and enforcement for these offenses. A person who refuses to take a chemical test (breath test) immediately receives a suspension of the privilege to operate a snowmobile, pending a DMV hearing.
How can I get more information about snowmobile operation in NYS?
The NYS Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation web site contains information about snowmobile insurance, safety training and other information.
