Same for some of the CG's along the Skyline Drive. We stayed in the non-generator loop. Didn't do any good. We could hear the gensets any ways. It was the way the loops were laid out. Some guy ran his big 5kw plus all night. Ran into the same thing at North Dickey in Mt. last year; this guy had one of them 5.5kw $500 units in the back of his truck across the loop road. Maybe 50 feet away. After two nights they went to a CG with shore power. The CG host didn't seem to be able to do anything about quite hours that were posted. Some times the USFS doesn't support its CG host on quite hours. NPS does better but then their LEO's usually don't have to chase drugs like on the national forests. I leave both the 1450 watt coleman and the troy built 5.5kw at home.
