Not all state parks have camping for backpackers.

I have no idea where you heard that... It is suppose to be .5 miles from any
state park or private campground. All state parks have walk-in sites for
backpackers free of charge. There are some areas that are off limits such as
waterfalls, caves, etc... I have backpacked that route many times and have
camped at the flatrocks just south of Proffit Mountain. I have also camped
about 3/4 of a mile from Johnson Shutins along the creek. My favorite spot
is up by the old reservoir.

I have been thining about camping towards Johnson Shut Ins along the Ozark
Trail, also getting the Proffit Mountian cache.  When questioning about
where to set up a camp at, they said at least 3 miles away from the Park
Boundry.

My question is, why do they require to be 3 miles outside the park boundry?
Wouldnt a mile or even outside the boundry be enough?
