Ok, maybe I got this wrong but this one really ... well... boils me...
What I was told is this guy is notorious for not filling out a permit...
And he went on an overnight trip when he said he was doing a dayhike.
I hope he got a nice bill.
Fill out a friggin SELF REGISTRATION permit or don't tell people you're
doing a dayhike and then do an overnight.
If I'm wrong I'll apologize. If not... then
Hello... Park Service... this is a teachable moment as Bearproof would say.

Where have you heard of this fella??
We talked to a Kings Canyon employee before doing a small
overnight backpack from Big Meadow(s) thru Jennie Lake(s)
to Roaring River... over Avalanche Pass ... out Roads End...
Things matched up. I could be wrong though.
Searched on z web and found no details... only "yeah... found!"
