Does a day trip carrying a stove or bear canister require a wilderness permit?

gap · gap-taboose-day-equipment-permit

Scope conflict: trail-page day-use exemption is unqualified, but the active order includes possession of listed equipment without an overnight condition. Day hiking is not represented as unconditional permit clearance; ask the Inyo permit office for interpretation. No new equipment vocabulary or exemption is invented.

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