    If you aren't hunting you aren't subject to the conditions of a hunting permit, so its irrelevant.

    Obviously this means being unarmed when you're there.

    I guess there could be a grey area if you entered the permit area armed but left your weapon at camp while going for a walk with a light later - you aren't hunting because you aren't armed, but you did enter the area under the conditions of the permit. If they charged you they might have to prove in court that you weren't just looking for a good toilet spot though.
