[pct-l] No camping with 100 feet of PCT & Lakes?

[Phil Baily]

These rules have been evolving over the years as trail usage 
increase. As others have pointed out, they vary according to which 
Forest or Park you are in, not by state. For example, most of the 
Sierra Nevada has rules similar to what you describe. In Lassen 
National Forest there are restrictions with regard to proximity to 
water but not the trail. These rules and fire restrictions are 
locally determined and administered. I have never seen rangers 
actually write tickets, but I have been asked (told) to move by a ranger.
