When I stop and think about it, it's true. If you are

want to allow that person in and you don't have a
permit,
the FS forces you to ban the person, or essentially
privatize the event.

Too weird.


What happens if I'm camped near 75 people I know but don't
like?


I think we've seen that posted here several times, have we
not? I doubt the forest service takes into consideration who
likes who, but I think your question was rhetorical anyway,
was it not? In any case, from what I recall, judges who
consider the range of the permit have differing opinions,
but usually end up ruling that anyone in the vicinity is
subject to the regulations/permit. They haven't, to my
knowledge, come up with a concrete version of just what "the
vicinity" consists of.
