<< I don't think you have any problem, there. A lot of tourists self-tour
and that's not a problem, even if it's a family group and one member of the
family is particularly knowledgeable. The whole licensing issue comes when
it is being done on a more commercial basis. IIRR, special use permits are
for more formal events.

That's one reason the GDG obtains permits for the Musters, and the non-LBG
tour guides are given a copy to carry with them. With the number of people
some of our tours attract, they can easily look like something somebody is
charging for, and it saves a lot of explaining should a Ranger choose to
stop and ask. (Although it wouldn't surprise me if they are also briefed
when an organization such as ours is known to be holding an event involving
such tours.)
