Does the seasonal webpage exempt winter overnight trips?

gap · gap-emigrant-permit-season-conflict

Conflict: the access page gives April 15-November 15 but also unqualified overnight wording; the signed order requires overnight permits year-round through June 30, 2029. Do not infer a winter exemption; confirm current requirements with the issuing ranger station.

Open question. The following evidence does not resolve this gap. Use the recorded question and reason to understand what needs confirmation.
