Walking out of Clingerman Dome in a pretty significant ice, snow, rain and wind environment and I got shook down by a ridgerunner for my Smoky Permit. The guy was condescending and rude. I told him I had it in my pack or a receipt on my phone; he wanted my name - full name, not trail name. Bottom line, unless he was trying to earn his park ranger merit badge, he should stick to his responsibilities - trail maintenance and teaching LNT.
