>>1871238state parks and forests have a different raison d'etre than national forests. they're carefully managed nature reserves and places people can enjoy the outdoors, rather than an open public resource like national forests. the rules for them are the same as city parks and playgrounds, and they have lots of problems with squatters shitting up the place and local kids having drinkin' parties and shit.
we all need to do our part to keep these underfunded parks nice and appealing for people and kids to enjoy. if you want to larp in the bushes go somewhere else
