Texas OHV Stickers
All offroad vehicles must display a current Texas Parks and Wildlife OHV sticker while in the park.
The sticker is required by state law and enforced by game wardens at all parks that accept state grants and in the national forests.
Stickers are available from a number of sources throughout the state.
As a courtesy to patrons, the BMRA office maintains a supply of stickers for $17 each.
More information regarding the Texas Parks and Wildlife OHV Sticker Program is available from Texas Parks and Wildlife.
