most of the land where I think you are describing is Merril and Ring Physt Tree Farm. It is permit system. More expensive than the other tree farms and has been operating like that for years. They are pretty strict about their rules, they have a guy (Joe) that patrols and enforces. Rayonier has some land from Twin Rivers to deep Creek that is permit only (will update in August on their site). Rayonier also has land in the Dickey GMU along 113. Between Deep Creek and Physt I think the small holdings are mostly tribal family tree farms.
