Field notes
The site presents its collecting guidance by land manager, making the difference between BLM land, national forests, national parks, and private or claimed ground explicit. It cites a BLM Oregon and Washington benchmark of under 250 pounds per day, and gives petrified wood a separate daily and annual limit. App features such as offline land status and find logging are described as forthcoming, not as live functionality.
