We hope to go July2-5 if I can get a camp site. All the sites are booked, I am watching for a cancelation everyday. Anybody going got room for one tent, truck and trailer????????????????

Sound Level Rules and Testing

Vehicle muffler noise levels will continue to be checked with the static or stationary sound level test performed at a 20-inch distance from the exhaust pipe at half the vehicle's rated maximum revolutions per minute (RPM) or as detailed in the automotive specifications SAE J1169, March 92 or SAE J1287, June 86, as was introduced in 2002. The maximum noise level permitted under these testing conditions will be 94 dBa which is the current limit set by the Off-Road Recreation Vehicles Act of Part 811 of 1994 PA 451 (MCL 324.811). All vehicles are required to have a muffler and spark arrester. Mufflers must contain baffles that meet U.S. Forest Service approval certification.

mine is pretty loud, but they didn't check me. Probably because of the time or season. Hell, there was a guy that entered before me that didn't have a sparky on and was twice as loud as me. There weren't a lot of people there. Mine isn't nearly as loud as some that enter, so I really don't think it will be a problem, but I had a plan. I drove my truck in with it in the back and just unloaded on the beach. But, I kept returning to the parking area with it and re-entering without a problem. But, if they insisted on checking, I was going to switch to my stock silencer and keep my DG in the truck and switch it back when I unloaded it... I am not sure when I will be going next, but I hope to soon. I want to go this weekend, but I promised myself that I would never again on a holiday, at least ride. I may take my truck in just to observe. I may trailer my Dodge Ram, who knows.
