Riding On Joint Base Lewis-McChord
|
We ride on Joint Base Lewis-McChord by permission of the military. You MUST have an iSportsman account and check in and out every time you access a training area, with the exception of riding as part of a WHC permitted activity/hunt. The Joint Base Lewis-McChord Range Complex rests on 64,000 acres of land, broken down into 32 separate training areas. 21 of the Training Areas are at times open for civilian recreational use that does not conflict with military operations.

The new system is totally on-line, no more trips to Range Control to get your pass! This year JBLM is starting to charge for one-year range passes, they are $40. for adults and $20. for seniors. Your current Range Pass will no longer work as of July 1st, and with the new iSportsman pass, you will sign-into an area on-line, including TA 7N, whenever you ride or recreate. You are buying a recreation pass, NOT a hunting pass, which is for live game hunting on JBLM!
The iSportsman process has two steps to complete, first you must log into the site and create an account. You will need your vehicle license plate number and your drivers license as proof of ID. Below is the link to create your account:

Once this is completed, there's a second step, you will need to email a photo of your current driver's license to the email below:
usarmy.jblm.id-readiness.list.dpw-isportsman@army.mil
Once iSportsman has verified your ID, you log back into your account and click on the tab “Permit’s Available” and this now will be populated with the available permits. Your paper day permit will need to be printed and visible in your vehicle or carry it with you. JBLM currently does not have an app to do this but hopefully that will follow soon.
PLEASE read through the entire website (it's not long) as it has lots of useful information and is a good refresher on some rules and regulations that JBLM has for recreation on the Base!
